Thanks for your prompt response. Actually, I solved the problem after posting.  
When I got to the "Ready to Install" dialog, in the Task Manager, there were 4 
instances of msiexec.exe running.  I experimented with deleting 3 of them.  At 
first, I killed the whole install, but finally I deleting the correct three, 
and the install ran to completion.
