The binaries are actually installed in dns\bin and the config files are
in \dns\etc.

Try creating the directories first and then run the installer. BTW there
is no need to install in Windows\system32 and I've stopped doing that.
Any reason why you are installing 9.3.4 instead of 9.4.1?

While it should build I have no idea if there are any new issues that
need to be fixed for 64 bits. Without the hardware and software it's
hard to tell.
