Problems installing SP5 for Code/400 v. 5.1

[Leguar]

Just DL'ed SP5 and tried to install it. Windows Installer tells me, it will not open (in Danish language). DL'ed the Installer from the same page as SP5. Tried to install it. Got an error: The specified service already exists (in US language). Went to the MS-side, and DL'ed the Installer for Win98 from there. Installed it, and then again tried to install SP5. But I still get the same error with Installer, telling me: this packet could not be opened ........... control, that this is a valid Windows installer packet. Any help ??? Best regards, Leif

First time I got 75.837.552 of 94.091.588 bytes. Seconde time I got 79.826.792 of 94.091.588 bytes. (sounds strange to me !!!!) Went to the FTP site and dl'ed from there. Got the whole SP5. Installed it, and everything is now ok.
