Downgrade to Pro Tools 7.3
Recently, i installed windows internet explorer 7 because internet explorer 8 is not compatible with Pro Tools 8. I completely wiped Pro Tools 8 off my system and ran the Pro Tools 8 installer with internet explorer 7. The installer still froze when it arrived at the (dll) files. As a test, i ran the installer for Pro Tools 7.3 and it worked just fine. I would really like to use the newest version of Pro Tools. Could i try and install the 8.0.3 update with Pro Tools 7.3? I don't know why the installer for Pro Tools 8 always stalls. It's beginning to annoy me. Can anyone possibly help?
My system specs: Operating system: Windows XP Professional Audio Interface: DIGI 003 |

Re: Downgrade to Pro Tools 7.3
No, you need to have 8 - actually 8.0.1 in order to install 8.0.3 I believe. Have you ever gotten 8 to install? Are you installing from DVD and if so, do you get any error messages? Sounds like it could be a bad DVD as there are many in circulation.

Re: Downgrade to Pro Tools 7.3
I'm leaning towards the bad DVD scenario also. Theres nothing with IE8 or any other version that would cause a problem installing PTLE. I would try copying the installer to your desktop and run it from there or download the installer from your My Digi/My Avid account.
You need to install 8.0 that 8.0.1 then 8.0.3cs2
