[GNC] 3.0 Install Fails

[Richard Marmor]

   In Windows 8.1 I run 2.6.21 without problems; 3.0 is another story.
   3.0 will not install at all. Installation attempts freeze about 33%
   into the
   install process. I have tried 4 times including using different
   downloads in
   case of corrupted files, always with the same result.
   I did manage to get 3.0 to install with Windows in Safe Mode, but after
   re-
   turning to Regular Mode, when 3.0 starts up, I receive an error message
   that
   Gnucash is seeking a disk in an obscure back (memory card) drive, and I
   can't
   make the message go away or move past it.
   For the record, what I could see of 3.0 looked odd, too, kind of spread
   out,
   not identical to the 2.6 versions I had run.
   I ultimately had no choice but to uninstall 3.0 and reinstall 2.6.21.
