I am using Windows 7 64 and have made numerous, unsuccessful attempts to install MiKTeX 2.9 and am getting very frustrated. I have attached my log report of errors for your reference.
I have done some troubleshooting for a fouled installation of MiKTeX 2.9, but cannot seem to find the successful answer.
I alway did the installation as administrator.
Please help.
Thanks,
Peter
