OK, I'll re-explain my last comment.

The following does not work when it comes to Borderlands' installer:

1. Running the installer with a disc image causes the installer to crash. 

2. The installer will skip the EULA, User Registration, and Install directory
selection pages. It proceeds directly to coping files after a user clicks on
"next" at the first install page. (This prevents the user from changing the
install path, inputting the user registration info, and from correctly
accepting the EULA required by the game.)

3. The installer does not show the files being copied to disk, only a full
progress bar.

4. The installer will try to write to the install directory (eg. C:\Program
Files\2K Games\Borderlands\) even if the partition it is on is full. (The
installer does not care if the disk is out of space.)

5. The installer creates an incorrect registry entry that prevents the game's
patch installers from working correctly. (The patches are not installed to the
correct directory.)

Numbers 1 and 2 are corrected if Windows Script Host is installed via
winetricks.

The game itself works if you can get it installed correctly.
