When I try to create a new project, and go to web, no mvc project appears for me to choose.
Why is that? and why the microsoft installer says that the mvc3 is installed at the end of the installation, but actually, the installation isnt installed, cause I cant create any mvc project :(
UPDATE:
i tried another asp.net mvc3 installer and it gave me this at the end of the installation.
Error:

ASP.NET MVC 3 uses a Web Application template and not a WebSite. So go to File -> New Project
and not File -> Web Site ...
or simply use Ctrl+Shift+N:
in contrast to a new Web Site:
Have you changed the .net Framework version in the dropdown at the top of the add new project box? The ASP MVC new project types only show up when .net Framework 4 is selected.
This has happened to me in the past, and its always been down to VS settings:
