This will occur if the script was compiled using the Microsoft SMS Installer 32 and it was compiled only for 32-bit clients. The option to compile only for 32-bit clients is selected under installation properties\destination platforms in the script editor. Select both 16-bit and 32-bit under installation properties\destination platforms in the script editor before compiling the executable. STATUS ====== Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Systems Management Server Installer version 2.0. This problem has been corrected in the latest U.S. service pack for Systems Management Server Installer version 2.0.
