I had this same problem, and I just managed to fix it using the following steps (I assume you use windows xp?) 1. Go to the control panel 2. Open "Computer Management" 3. On the left there should be a tab labelled "Services and Applications", click the + to expand it 4. Highlight the "Services" subsection of "Services and Applications" 5. On the right there hsould be a long list of services, under which is "Windows Installer" 6. Right click on "Windows Installer" and go to properties 7. Make sure the start-up type is on "Automatic" 8. Press OK, close the Computer Management, close Control Panel 9. Good to go I hope this helped.
