Hi. I am trying to install Maya 2013 on my Windows XP. However, in the installation menu is only two options to install: Backburner, and Autodesk DirectConnect. The DirectConnect option is greyed out, so the only option I can choose is Backburner. Yet when I select that and try to install it, I get the 0Xc0000135 error and the setup shuts down.
Here is the error log:

From what I can tell, it's just the Backburnercif.exe malfunctioning. What I don't know is how to fix it, and I would also like to know why there are only the two options to install. I tried to enter the "x86" folder and manually installed Backburner using the Windows installer file, but the Autodesk setup still failed. Hopefully someone here can shed some light on this problem (which I'm sure is pretty easy to resolve but a tech noobie like me can't figure out how to)
Your error seems to describe that an dependency is missing. Perhaps you are missing some DLLs or your download is corrupted or incomplete?
