I'm trying to install VS2010Pro. I previously had the VS2010Ultimate trial version installed. I've tried to insert the product key, but it didn't accept it. If i try to install it via DVD, it doesn't install it all. Here's the installation log:

After this i've tried to uninstall/reinstall it several times. I've tried using a trial Pro version downloaded from Visual Studio Subscriptions portal. With this, the installation doesn't return any error but still the end result is the same. I've tried a manual uninstallation following this link. Still not working.
I tried to run devenv.exe /resetsettings. The application started and crashed in a few seconds while loading.
I tried devenv.exe /setup (from cmd as administrator) and nothing happened (the application didn't even started).
I've tried to run it as administrator and it crashed.
I've tried devenv.exe /safemode. The application starts and no error is reported until i try to create a new project or open an existing project; then it crashes.
The error reported (often twice in each attempt to open/create a project) is this one:
If i just try to launch VS, it doesn't report the error but it simply crashes after a few seconds during the loading.
Here the result of devenv.exe /log:

Any idea?
Update
I've tried to install it via DVD on another PC (to be fair i've just installed the C# and VB packages cause it's not a machine of mine and it didn't have enouth memory avaiable). It seems to be working on it. So the DVD itself and all its files are fine. My hypotesis is that the previous installation (VS2010Ultimate) is creating some problem. That or my very PC has some other problem of his own. Still no idea what it could be though. I've tried to copy the VsDebugPresentationPackage file, but the application will still not run (it returns another error similar to the previous one). I will try to copy the whole Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0 and Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0 folders.
