Installation & Licensing

[#1]

OK, I have installed AutoCAD 2012 on my desktop and now I am installing it on a laptop for out of office use at home.  I thought since I had the new 2013 I could just install it and I did.  It failed.  I uninstalled it completely using the steps found on this web site.  Started over this time using the 2012 version.  It failed.  I tried uninstalling and reinstalling at least four more times with the same results, FAILED!  I am now frustrated beyond sanity.  I need this to work but haverun out of ideas.  I know I'm doing something wrong but I can't put my finger on what it is.  I need help.

I am running 64bit Windows 7, 2gig video, 16gig RAM, Core i7 2.7 processor, 750 gig hard drive.

Post the install log linked in the failure summary page.  It's most like a prerequisite failure.

Yeah Darren called it.  Specifically, this is what is failing:

Install Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable (x86) Failed Installation aborted, Result=1603

So like he said, click that link and start with that program.  Then try again.  Let us know.
