CS4 error 1603

It's really crazy,
I contact support center by phone and posting, several days ago, but they don't give any answer about how to install CS4 when you get error 1603.
I have reading in the KB from adobe but anything posted there works.
Scenary:
- Windows Vista Home Premiun 32 bits
Intel core 2 duo 2.20 Ghz, 3 gb Ram, 220 Gb HD with 80 gb free, NVIDIA GeForce 8600M GT
Software installed
- Ms VS 2005 .net
- Borland Delphi 7
- Adobe Flex Builder 3.0
- Macromedia 8
- Microsoft XNA
- 3D Max Studio 2009
- Blender
- Ms Office 2007
- Python, Ruby, Java, Tcltk, etc, etc, etc, etc.....
I used to have Dreamweaver CS3 for trying.
So I applied the information from here http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/403/kb403911.html for CS4 and also to remove key from CS3.
But now my registry is a mix because of Cleaner scripts!!!.
Sorry folks, does any have a solution for me???
thanks

Anyone have any suggestions or new ideas. I see a number of people have had this issue, though I’ve been unable to resolve it with the typical solutions others have suggested. Sorry if I've left something out or posted this in the wrong place -- first time asking a question on a forum. Thanks

Error 1603. Photoshop CS4

Alright, so I recently got Photoshop CS4, for some odd reason when I had to do a system restore, it messed up. Not sure why, but I got the screen to accept or decline the user end license agreement, when I clicked to accept it, it just went away and nothing happened. So I uninstalled it, and tried reinstalling it, now every time I try, it gets right to the end, where it's installing Adobe Bridge CS4 and it comes up with an error saying it had problems installing photoshop CS4 and then asks me if I want to continue with the installation, I click continue, and it finishes, but I get an error message at the end again. When I click more information I get this:
Adobe Photoshop CS4
Error:

I'm not sure why I'm getting this error, please tell me someone knows what the hell is going on here? Lol. Because people are going to ask here are my specs:
Model: HP Pavilion dv6700 Notebook PC
OS: Windows Vista
RAM: 2g
Free HD space: 170g
Complete HD space: 250g
Processor: AMD Turion(tm) 64 X2 Mobile Technology TL-60 (2 CPUs), ~2.0GHz
BIOS: PhoenixBIOS 4.0 Release 6.1 (you probably won't need this, lol)
Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce 7150M / nForce 630M
All help is EXTREMELY appreciated. :D Thanks in advance.

I just got the trial version to install after trying for 12 hrs.
I'm on Vista Home basic, acer laptop, I tried everything ..
I edited the registry (see this post
Alan Musgrove, "critical error during PS CS4 installation" #20, 22 Jan 2009 12:56 pm and deleated the keys back to default), turned off firewall and anti virus, disconnected from the internet, shut down all my running programs including the acer empowering technology application( using windows taks manager) ran adobe wincleancs4 script twice, then cs3 clean script, made sure the adobe cs4 trial file that I downloaded was on my desk top, then turned off the uac (user account control).
Whilst running the clean up scripts to level 2 (maximum) I also chose the option to remove the adobe media player . One of the clean up scripts gives the option to do this, can't remember which one.
I already have shockwave player and reader 9.1 installed, but I chose to install all the items on the trial. It worked like a dream.
I tried every fix you could imagine before, but IMHO it was probably running Both clean scripts to (level 2 with the remove media player option) as explained and finally turning off the UAC that did the trick.
Maybe if I'd turned off the uac first. I may not have had to do the others.
all in all, by doing everything above, it finally worked.
Hope that helps someone.
Thanks all.

Download of CS4 reports failed Adobe Encore/Premiere/ends Error 1603 AdobeColorComm Set RGB.

I purchased Adobe Premiere PRO CS4 a couple of years ago and have had some excellent results.
However, since my PC crashed and following a Healthcheck at PC World that found nothing wrong with it apart from a suggestion that I should upgrade my 64MB video card to 256MB when I load the programme (two discs) Disc 1 stops to advise Adobe Encore and Aobe Premier Failed and after Disc 2 I get an advice that optional components failed to install correctly and some functionality may be limited, getting a Failure Message AdobeColorComm.Set RGN Error 1603. Fatal error during installation.
At first, I quit when Disc 1 highlighted the failure but on subsequent attempts I have proceeded, but two factors immediately arise when I start to use CS4 which were definitely not there before since I need the facilities:
an ability to bring down to the Sound line ONLY sound - it seems odd that the Video post of additional lines is functional
an ability to bring down to the Sound line music on either MP3 or WAV format
One thing that PC World did suggest was to download a Driver from www.Nvidia.co.uk and whilst I went on the site with this in mind:
I was unsure which type of driver to download
a warning came up that Nvidia drivers were not recognised by Adobe / Windows as being compatible - and so I did not proceed
As you can imagine, it is all very frustrating - thankfully I do not currently have a queue of brides awaiting their wedding videos but I have got two major projects relating to a male voie choir.
My PC in an HP 9500GT XP Professional 32 Bit.
We have taken off all programmes, cleaned, put back the programmes but still the problem persists - last week-end we followed the guidance notes of Options 1 and 2 but to no avail despite removing temporarily System Color Profiles in accordance with the instructions.
URGENT HELP REQUIRED PLEASE !
Please can someone tell me what we have to do in order to overcome the problem? I had considered an upgrade to CS5.5 but see that this requires a 64bit PC.
HELP HELP !!!

No need to be afraid. Microsoft has stopped certifying drivers for Win XP years ago. Whichever reasonably current one you will download, is probably going to work...

Error 1603 when installing CS4 on Windows 8.1

Good day
I'm trying to install CS4 Design Premium on Windows 8.1 64bit machine. A previous install has failed and I uninstalled it using Windows and AdobeCreativeCloudCleanerTool.exe
A couple seconds into the installation (after actually starting the install) the following error appears:
"Adobe Color JA Extra Settings CS4
Fehler: Error 1603. Schwerwiegender Fehler bei der Installation."
Any help is appreciated!
Best regards
Simon

you can uninstall any cs4 program that is installed.
clean (Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6)
and retry installing.
if you again see a 1603 error, check your install logs for more specific info - Troubleshoot installation with install logs | CS3, CS4

I reinstalled my OS as I do every year or so. when I install CS4 I do not have Premiere Pro Adobe Premiere Pro Error 1603. Error 1311.Source file not found: F:\Adobe CS4\payloads\AdobePremierePro4All\AdobePremierePro4All1.cab. Verify that the file exists

Error 1603. Error 1311.Source file not found: F:\Adobe CS4\payloads\AdobePremierePro4All\AdobePremierePro4All1.cab. Verify that the file exists and that you can access it.

And what exactly? You have not provided any system info or other details.

Running into the same issue over here. It seems like it has to do with applying a transform to the installation, so it could be related with a particular setting put in place using the Adobe Customization Wizard.
It's really kind of hit or miss, because it appears to affect those with previous versions of Acrobat or Reader installed, but that isn't always the case.
Had this happen to systems that haven't had any sort of Adobe product installed prior.
It's always the same thing too. Error 1603 is spit out after it can't remove select files in C:\Windows\Installer
After digging through the system, the files that it's looking to delete aren't even there to begin with.

Another error 1603!!

So after reading a lot about this nasty error, and trying everything I could lay my eyes on, and to the point to thinking about reinstalling my windows vista, which happen to be the same time as I had a windows 7 copy laying around, anyway, after all the solutions I could find failed, from completly uninstalling anything that has "Adobe" before it, using Windows Installer cleanup script(didnt find any adobe stuff after using the add/remove), using Adobe Cleanup script(again found nothing after using the normal add/remove), to a fresh installation of Windows 7, and this $@#$^$ error is still chasing me!
Note that the installation of Photoshop and Illustrator worked ONCE on windows vista, and after a while, I decided to try Indesign, which didnt install and nothing with CS4 at the end wanted to install too =/ and after upgrading to Windows 7, before installing much stuff I tried Indesign CS4, IT WORKED! but nothing from CS4 installed after that. Of course I tried uninstalling all Adobe stuff, used the tool by microsoft and adobe, restarted, even uninstalled my antivirus, tryed the installation a bunch of times, no use! Finally I found a way to log Windows Installer errors, and my error log is attached.
btw, this is what I get with the PS CS4 installer Adobe Photoshop CS4
Adobe Photoshop CS4

You have to install the .exe file as Administrator in windows 7.
My account is the administrator..in case you ment right-click --> Run as Administrator, I'll try that!
Also turn off windows defender and any anti-virus.
Already off
Remove Adobe reader from your computer if installed.
No it's not, and I'll add flash to the uninstalling
cycle..
Go into msconfig and ensure there are no adobe products running in the background before you attempt to install.
Will do!
Choose to only install PS CS4 and bridge. You can choose to install the other products later if you choose.
Alright.
Expect the install to hang when about 90 percent complete. It is installing but slows down at about 90 percent.
Let it take all its time! no problem here! lol as long as its gonna deliver me something useful in the end!
Thanks, I'll report back once I try these

"Error 1603. A fatal error occurred during installation"

Ive been trying to install Adobe Photoshop CS4 trial for the past 3 days.
The only reason I want to try it is because of its ability to create textures directly on models.
But whenever I try to install, I get this error
"Adobe Drive CS4
Error:
Error 1603. Fatal error during installation."
Dispite it not saying that Adobe Photoshop CS4 having an error, I still get this screen:

I have read [And done] this forum's instructions fully and it still will not install.

I also have some hardcore gaming video memory, but I don't think thats relevent here. :3

Disable any anti virus running on Windows 7. Disable windows defender.
Go into start and type in services, click on services, and look for Windows Installer. Turn it from Manual to Auto and hit apply, then start the service and hit ok. close services.
Make sure you run the PS CS4 installer as Admin!!
No need to turn off UAC or the firewall.
Before you run CS4 right click and select properties and run it as Admin.
When you are ready to run CS4 for the first time make sure your connect to the internet. Also update CS4 to 11.0.1 update. Also ensure your video card drivers are up to date

Fatal error during installation - Error 1603 ONLY on XP

My Dears,
while installing any CS3 or CS4 Adobe product for my friend, at ~90% of installation error comes up:
"Adobe Photoshop CS4
Error:
Error 1603. Fatal error during installation."
I am struggling to solve it for 3 days now, and of corse I have seen and tryied all things proposed in posts like this: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/373577 , but still nothing helps me.
Thats list of all things that I have tryied to do:
- CleanUp fix
- Uninstalling all Adobe before fix
- Turning Internet off fix
- Turning anti-vir things off fix
- Registery fix
- Starting from CLEAN new system fix
- Changing language from US to International fix
Still nothing. Probably thats the point of problem:
Current Situation:
Got ACER ASPIRE x3200 desktop width Windows Vista (preinstalled), did clean installation of Windows XP and dumped Vista
There is no official drivers for XP, but got cracked chipset driver and official nVidia 8200 driver for XP from Internet
Got all Service Packs
100% legal
If nothing is working, maybe thats becaouse of my PC?! Installed it on my laptop with Vista 32b - WORKS (it means that installation CD is not corruptet or something). But then I have tryied to install it on another laptop with XP PRO - fail as with my PC. It seems that Windows XP Pro is not good for CS3 or CS4, BUT it did months before in my old unbranded PC.
Help! I really want to install that stuff.
Best Regards,
Westmidlander

I was only speaking very generally... This is all common sense...
Adobe and other software makers are moving on from XP in their development. Thus XP becomes more and more troublesome to use as the likelihood of problems increases.
In the case of installation, a lot of very specific things are required of an installer so that it can work on Windows 7. The User Account Control (UAC) system and other security measures such as file permissions have to be completely and properly satisfied to install software on the newer systems. Indeed, the application itself even has to work differently to be compliant - reference the recent 12.0.2 issues with loading scanner drivers for example, or the fact that Photoshop needs to put some things under C:\Users\... now that always used to be put under C:\Program Files\Adobe\...
It's not hard to imagine that Adobe isn't testing software as thoroughly on XP as they once did either. Perhaps they missed one of the quirks of XP in pursuit of getting it to install properly on Windows 7.
You're putting a new cutting edge software application on an operating system designed nearly 10 years ago (an epoch in high tech). That you don't see even more problems is a testament to Adobe's committment to support XP.
