Weird. Do you have the demo installed? If so, try uninstalling it first - most of the install issues seem to happen because of it.

If that fails, you can just register your serial with Stardock Central or Impulse (beta) and download the game that way, bypassing the need to run the installer manually.

Here you go!

SDC is Stardock's current digital distribution platform. It will be replaced by Impulse in the summer, which is much newer, prettier, and cleaner. But for now, just download SDC, add the Sins registration (you have to actually select that you're registering Sins, it won't link the key to the game automatically), and then you'll be able to download the game whenever you want to. It will use the same account as the forums, IIRC, to permanently link the key to it.
