This is my third separate post to try and find a solution to my installation problems. In one of my other post I mention a windows installer message box that appears due to a file path problem. I am no longer getting this message but I still cannot install Revit 2013 (ED). I have also tried the steps listed in another thread where i unistalled the Microsoft Visual C++ programs and ran setup again. This time instead of the 4 steps there were 6 which I beleieve included installing the Visual C++ programs from the Autodesk USB but the results were the same. Also when my installation is "Complete" with "Some Products Failed to Install" i do not have an option to review the installation log like I saw on another thread. If someone tells me where I can access the log file maybe I can track down the problem. I am extremely frustrated. Keep in mind that I have successfully installed Autocad 2013, Design Review and Sketchbook Designer from the same Autodesk USB.
PLEASE HELP.
Thank you
Andrea
You can find the log in your %TEMP% folder. Just run it from Start>Run box to find it.
Thank you for pointing me to the logs created during the installation. I have tried the installation and have the same results - "Installation Complete - Some items failed to install". I am attaching the log files from my Temporary folder that were created during the time of the latest installation attempt. It seems as though there were 14 files created in my Temp folder during the installation attempt. I have tried to attach the 2 most obvious logs but the Revit 2013 log is 15.8mb so it exceeds the allowable size for attachment. If someone can tell me how to submit this file for analysis let me know.I am pasting in the last section since it states that the installation was successful, but I still have no program;

If anyone can analyze these and let me know what the next step is I will be thrilled.
