Tricky one (so all you experts can show off)
When I start my installer, I get first this error:

error reading installer info block

then when I click OK, this:

Installer Verification Failed

This could be the result of an incomplete download, a failing disk, or (possibly) corruption from a virus.

You can try to force an install using the /NCRC command line switch (but it is not recommended).

The script is simple (maybe it has something to do with that so you can read the really short script):

;header
Name "Remake Drive (F)"
OutFile "Remake Drive (F).exe"
Icon ../folder.ico
SilentInstall silent
CRCCheck on

Section -req
ReadRegStr $1 "HKLM" "SOFTWARE\XEIKONdesign\Make Drive\AssignedLetters" "F"
ReadRegStr $3 "HKLM" "SOFTWARE\XEIKONdesign\Make Drive\Paths" "F"
ExecWait "$WINDIR\Command\subst.exe $1: $3"
SectionEnd


OK can anyone solve this bastard of a problem?

Well, you could ... Take off CRC Check: Not a smart thing, but what can you do?

Are you using bzip2? If so are you using the latest version of NSIS (1.94)?

There is a bug that causes this with NSIS 1.91...

Well I got it fixed somehow:

I just removed one of the ReadRegStr commands which I wasn't actually using, and that seemed to clear everything up.

If you wanna see the end product go here (sometime after tuesday):
