Unable to use path

[digitaldias]

I am unable to install the game using the file DDOProgressive_4.28.exe which I believe is the installer to use. I've searched the forum here but not found any posts containing the error message, hence this post.

First, I run the installer in Custom mode to choose my larger D: drive as destination:


Then, it fails:


The same happens if I try to install to my C: drive.
This is all information I get. I have not been able to find any logs or anything more about this error than the dialog. If there is a diagnostics mode for the installer that I can use, then I will enable it. Other games run and install fine on the same computer btw (everquest, battlefield, lord of the rings online, etc)

My OS
Windows 8.1 Pro
CPU: i7-2600 CPU 3.4Ghz
RAM: 16GB
System Type: 64Bit


Any advice to get this working would be appreciated. It is weird that the installer stops this soon, this is the first and only game that does not install on this computer.
