Solution
Our IT.Dept have been looking into it and found that MathCAD 13 was not cleaning up the install shield from it's own install correctly. Deleting the MathCAD specific key below solved the issue.
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Installer\Products\025CE097CCCC01840AEF60613302C44E
Additionally the registry key was pointing to version 9 of Install shield so that even when the 10.50 install from Bentley was run - version 9 was installed any way due to the registry key.
Deleting the registry key seams to have no adverse effects on MathCAD.
