So you have one error here?

And a second, another error for the same installation?

Two exit codes for one failed installation? It's rather impossible. 
You're perhaps referring to two installation attempts?

Could you clear the event log, and start again?

Are you 100% sure Windows Installer 3.1 is installed (it may need a 
restart after the installation)?
