Administrator policies

[Guest]

I'm trying to install Java Runtime Envirnonment and I keep getting a message
that says "The SYstem administrator has set policies to prevent this
installation" I have only one account on the PC and it is set as
administrator. How do I find out how to alter the policies on installation
so that I can do this.

Thanx

Start>Run>Regedit>ok

now navigate to the following key:-

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Microsoft\
Windows\Installer

here the registry value must be 0(zero)

Ref:-
'DisableMSI'

work for me. Any Ideas
