Problem installing MSDN

Hi, All!
Just before end of installation, MSDN reports following error:
CloseCollection g_ccolCollection.Open(collectionname) dwError = 7
What's wrong, and what I have to do?
Thanks, Leonid

Simple: delete the hhcolreg.dat file in the Windows\Help folder and
reinstall.

Well another way is u know hacking, thats it.. here what u do ok.
After installing the MSDN change ur CD drive-letter from if its "C" to
"D" or if its "G" change it to "H", I hope it will work!
