the installation of Helium Music Manager 7 works without error after installing some essential components, here are my steps:
what i've installed and in which order:
∘ Internet Explorer 7 (perhaps better not, next try i will install Media Player 9 with IE 6)
∘ MS .NET 2.0
∘ MDAC 2.8 SP1
∘ MS Visual C++ 2008
∘ Helium Music Manager 7 (systest.exe gives error because of missing: MPlayer 9 und Jet)
∘ MS Jet 4.0 SP 8
∘ Windows Media Player 9 -> ignore IE errors and continue, MPlayer setup finishes with error, repeat the setup and it installs correctly
∘ Helium Music Manager second try finishes without errors!
∘ finally starting Helium 7 but doesn't run, gives error in helium7.exe
i'm actually investigating further and give more information when there's something new...
log files following asap...
