Error -6003 during Creative X-fi driver install

Posted on August 15, 2010

So the installer says something like:

---------------------------------------
Setup has experienced an error.

Please do the following:
- Close any running programs
- Empty your temporary folder
- Check your Internet connection (Internet-based Setups)

Then try to run the Setup again.

Error code: -6003
---------------------------------------

What do you do to solve this?

Why, erase any folder with a number as it's name (mine was named "09", but I'm sure it can be something else) in the following directory:
%System Drive%\Program Files\Common Files\InstallShield\Professional\RunTime\

No, it doesn't make sense, but it worked perfectly. No reboot or anything. Just remove (or simply move) that folder, and things will start working. Brilliant.
