I've tried this too....  No success here either.

Part of my initial problem was getting IE to function so that I could
continue the install.

Later, I tried CrossoverOffice from Codeweavers.

The demo seems really well put together and integrated.  Has support for
installers, etc.

You might try the demo, then try the install again...


I'm sure that if enough people start wanting it, MCHP could be convinced
to contact the people at Codeweavers to help smooth out any transition
issues, or at least make the MPLAB compliant with the emulation layer.

If I had this (MPLAB and perhaps AutoCAD on Linux), I'd be able to
reformat my only Windows machine and move away from MS forever! ...  I'm
already using Eagle on Linux, the only reason I keep windows around is
for MPLAB.
