Thanks lordebon.
I didn't see a means to run as admin during the install process (usually right-clicking the file gives the option), but I was able to install to a different file location (not Program Files) and the install at least finished this time.
However, when I open the updater Windows 8 tells me that EQ2 Map Updater has stopped working.
Original problem does appear to be a user rights / admin issue. Not sure if current problem associate to it, or is a problem with not installing in Program Files folder. Gonna play around with it some more.
