I'm trying to install some PCB software, Pad2Pad, which is available for download here [1]. The installation fails with "The InstallShield Engine (iKernel.exe) could not be launched. (0x80040155)", and the following messages on the terminal: $ wine "Pad2Pad 1.5.3 Setup.exe" fixme:ole:RegisterTypeLib Registering non-oleautomation interface! fixme:ole:ITypeInfo_fnRelease destroy child objects ... fixme:ole:ITypeInfo_fnRelease destroy child objects err:ole:register_ifstub couldn't get IPSFactory buffer for interface {00000131-0000-0000-c000-000000000046} err:ole:register_ifstub couldn't get IPSFactory buffer for interface {00000131-0000-0000-c000-000000000046} err:ole:proxy_manager_create_ifproxy Could not get IPSFactoryBuffer for interface {00000131-0000-0000-c000-000000000046}, error 0x80040155 err:ole:CoUnmarshalInterface IMarshal::UnmarshalInterface failed, 0x80040155 fixme:ole:CoCreateInstance no classfactory created for CLSID {91814ec0-b5f0-11d2-80b9-00104b1f6cea}, hres is 0x80040155 Is there anything I can do help this along?
