Student License Installation Errors

Hi SW Forums,

I just got my license for the student version of 2012 the other day, but I've been having a heck of a time installing it. Every time I attempt it it gets stuck at about the 50% mark with the main program failed (see screenshot attached) If I resume the installation the other modules like simulation and eDrawings install just fine. The installer also dumps a bunch of ZIP files on me (also attached) telling me to give them over to my local tech support. Problem is, as this is a student licence obtained directly from SW, I don't have a local tech support!

What makes it worse is that it took out my 2011 install in the process, which means I'm currently without a CAD program.

Can anyone help me out with this/send me to someone who can?

Thanks,

-Ryan

Edit: The error message I get is similar to an earlier post with a failed 2012 installation message from Dion Gommans
