are you running your MSI or setup.exe?

If setup, is it running as admin? If MSI try opening a command prompt as Admin and run msiexec.

I tried running setup.exe with admin privileges but still got the same error.
To be precise,

On running a msi based installer made with Installshield 2010 on Windows 2008 R2 machine,

validation error occurs:

Process name: msiexec.exe
Module name: kernelbase.dll
assert offset: 00014159

Moreover, Installer prompted me three choices with this error:

"Ignore once, Ignore always, Never ignore".

If I choose Ignore always, this error won't come again.
