Have you tried loading this device as a different user on the

Not sure what you mean by "different" user as I'm the only one
that has used this machine since purchasing it and reloading
system software then (about three years ago).
Go to System Preferences> Accounts. create a test user, making
them an Administrator. Log of, then on as the new user, and try
installing the software as the new user.
This is an elementary step in determining if an issue resides in
the system side of things (if the new user has the same problems,
it's a system or hardware issue, if not it's a prefs or other
local file issue with the old user.)
On every Mac I set up, i ALWAYS set up an Emergency account with a
simple (to me) password for just this type of testing. A couple of
times it has saved me a lot of time trouble shooting.
