However when I try to install it on my office PC running Windows 7 SP1, I get an error message. I even tried to install the "web installer" version, I always get the following error message:

I was having the same problem (and it was killing me!). I solved it going to Control Panel > Programs > Programs and Features > Turn off windows features, then I Disabled Microsoft Framework 3.5 and then It worked! Of course, when you finished the installation, you should turn it on as it was before. Hope this helps! Bst Regards!
