Solution What does this message mean? "NSIS error during installation"

The installer has failed a self-check. This means that for some actions, the installer file has been altered from its original form. If the install were to continue, the software would not be complete and will not work properly or at all. To prevent further problems, the installer refused to continue. How to fix:

1. Clear your browser's cache.
2. Disable any download accelerators or managers and download the installer again.
3. Rename the installer so it is a simple one-word name with no special characters (without removing the .exe suffix) * Example: install.exe
4. Download the installer from another source approved by the software developer or publisher. * It might be corrupted on the server, or the connection to the server is unreliable from your location.
5. Update your anti-virus software (if installed) and download the installer again.
6. Disable your anti-virus software and download the installer again.
7. Download the installer using another computer and copy it to the original computer.
8. If you have the nVidia firewall installed, uninstall the program and download the installer again.
9. Scan for, and remove malware and viruses on your system.
10. Scan the hard drive using scandisk, chkdsk, or any other hard drive repair tool.
11. Try to use another alternative browser to download the installer. Try FireFox ( http://www.getfirefox.com/ ) or Google Chrome ( http://www.google.com/chrome )
