Completely Failed Installation

[Gabeone]

Okay guys, I played FFXI from last halloween untill easter this year, but because of my mom being hospitilized and bills being quite large, I stopped playing all together. However, I didn't unsubscribe, I just let the bill run out and stopped playing. I dont want the same character I used anyways, I want to completely start over. I decided I would reinstall the game, and here are the current problems.

-I installed PlayOnline...when I opened it up and pressed start, it opened up the window, but it wasnt full screen. It was like, Half screen, and when the music started playing and the video followed, it owuld play for like 3 seconds, then freeze, and keep playing that same music part over and over again. It then showed the error.."ReadFile Error. 8040452,1441792,0,32768" I had to control+alt+deleat to get out of it.

-I did this 4 times..each time unsuccessfully. So I uninstalled the player. Somewhere at the end of the uninstalation, an error occured. I dont know what it was.

-I then went back in to install PlayOnline, and this happen:
+Pressed Install PlayOnline Viewer and Tetra Master
+The installer comes up, and then ends, saying that an error caused it to end, and it could not be fully uninstalled (?).
+After I click finish, a few boxes pop up. The first is "Windows Installer" which then is "Playonline Viewer and Tetra Master". It says "Preparing to Install" and "Gathering Required Information". 4 bars into it, it stops and gives me an error saying "Installer stoped prematurely". I then click okay, and the same box pops open, goes 4 bars in, and it all happens all over again.
+I go back to my SquareEnix folder, and the only thing in it is..

SquareEnix>playonline viewer>viewer>data>system>sound>viewer.esd>se00057 .spw

Its the only file in there, I tried deleating it, but it didnt work. I then completely reformatted the drive, so its COMPLETELY empty. There are NO files on that harddrive. I tried the whole instalation process again, and the same errors occur. I'm trying to INSTALL it, and after all the errors it says it failed UNinstalling it. Just some food for thought...

Hopefully someone can help me out

Okay guys...I got it installed. Somehow..but now when I open PlayOnline, it opens in a windowed mode, and when it starts to load after I click when it says to press any button, I get a windows error saying that it had to shut down, and asks me if I want to send an error report.

Any ideas what could be causing this ?
