I try to install and get a dialog box:
>>The feature you are trying to use is on a
network resource that is unavailable.<<
>>Use source
C:\WINDOWS\Downloaded Installations\{C4458AD6-A656-4799-9545-3055093FA184}\<<

It looks for BOINC.MSI but doesn't find it. When I put it there manually it doesn't recognize it
