The error message:

Unhandled Exception

Error Number: 0x8007025
Description: Incompatible version of the RPC stub.

Setup will now terminate.

----------------

My specs:

Windows ME
112 MB of RAM
Voodoo 3 2000 PCI
AMD Athlon 1 GHz
PCV-RX450 Sony VAIO PC

------------------

This is preventing me from installing such games as Max Payne and the FIFA 2001 demo. The error message pops up right before the InstallShield should start.

So far, I've done some research on the 'net and there are two popular solutions. One is to go to the InstallShield website where they have a trio of downloads that are supposed to solve the problem. I've tried them all and none of them have worked for me. The second one that most people have gotten success with is to replace the oleaut32.dll with another version, via MS-DOS. However, these people have Windows 98, and I have Windows ME, which does not have DOS.

Any suggestion would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Is this the error message you receive? I think this is what you're looking for.
