Installation of Parallel Studio XE Composer Edition c++ 2015 fails on clean Windows 8.1 system

[BURGI]

Hello,

I have problems installing the Parallel Studio XE 2015 Composer Edition for C++.
The installation ends immediately after displaying the setup splash screen for about 1 second, also after a clean Windows 8.1 installation.
The last lines in the log files are always the same:
...

<end of log>

I'm logged in as an admin. Visual Studio 2010 was previously setup and tested, including Service Pack 1.
I have tried this installation on three different machines (2x Windows 8.1 Enterprise, 1x Windows 7 Prof., all within one domain), same problem.

A test-installation of Intel Math Kernel Library 11.1.4 (Composer XE 2013 SP 1 Update 4) was ok without any problems.

Any suggestions?

Best regards
Ralf
