    I am unable to get a network install of ADT 2005 created with Network installation wizard to work on Windows XP machines with XP SP2. They work fine with sp1 machines, but generate a windows installler error "Error applying transforms. Verify that the specified transform paths are valid" when run on SP2 machines. I see that msiexec.exe is version 2 on the sp1 machines and version 3 on the machines with sp2. Has anyone else run into this? If so, did you find a workaround or fix? Thanks..

    I have occasionally run into this installing Land Desktop 2005 on some...but not all...of my Win XP SP 2 workstations. So far I have good luck (and successful installs) when disabling the Windows XP SP 2 firewall during installation on the errant machines.
