Installing SQL Server 2014 Data Tools BI for VS 2013

Question

I have VS 2013 Professional 64bit, SSMS 2014. I've downloaded SSDTBI_x86_ENU and ran the setup. According to the instructions from others who have had errors during installation, I'm supposed to select 'New Instance' and not 'Add Features' in 'Install Types'. I don't seem to have this option. So, I select 'New SQL Server stand-alone installation or add features to an existing installation'.

At this point I do get a feature selection window where I can select 'SQL Server Data Tools - Business Intelligence'.

After clicking next, during the install, I will get the following Error:

'VS Shell installation has failed with exit code -2147205120'

If I click on the link it takes me to a MS web page with the following information...

Answer 1

I had to download and install VS 2012 Tools for Applications and VS 2012 Shell Isolated, then install Business Intelligence.
