It's been a while since I attempted to open Calibre on my laptop, so I don't know what has changed. Today, when I attempted to open it, I got the message:

"Python function terminated unexpectedly cannot import name QVariant (error code: 1)

I decided to try reinstalling it from the download site. It went through much of the installation process, then brought up this message:

"A network error occurred while attempting to read from the file: c\windows\installer\calibre-0.7.7[1].msi"

When I clicked "OK," it told me that an error has occurred and stopped the installation. I need to uninstall the previous version of Calibre.

So I tried to uninstall my current version of Calibre and got this message again:

"A network error occurred while attempting to read from the file: c\windows\installer\calibre-0.7.7[1].msi"

Any ideas how to work through this?
