--- Comment #2 from Ben Shefte <shefben at gmail.com> ---
Please ignore my first comment, this issue with install MDAC28 isnt just
happening on wine 6.22;  it happens randomly with builds I have tested (v6 and
up).

Occasionally  I will remove my WOW64 prefix because I need a fresh wine
enviroment.  After wine sets up the new enviroment (as WOW64) I try to install
MDAC 2.8 using winetricks (using windows XP version).  

Sometimes MDAC will install fine like there was no issues with the WOW64
enviroment.  But more often than not, the installer complains that it cannot
install on my system and refuses to install.  

I have tried installing MDAC before all the c++ and .net runtimes and tried
installing after all the runtimes, its the same result.

Right now I have a working WOW64 prefix with MDAC 2.8 installed, but when I try
to run the installer using this prefix, it says it cannot install on this
system.

I am at a loss because it happens randomly.
