Error 109: The pipe has been ended.

Dear all,

I cannot install software on my Windows XP pro box when it uses MSI
installer files.
When I try to manually start the "Windows Installer Service" from the
Services window, it gives me the following error:
"Could not start the Windows Installer service on local computer. Error 109:
The pipe has been ended."

Tried to repair by reinstalling "WindowsInstaller" from KB893803, but with
no reveil.
Also an "Upgrade" from Windows XP pro install disk does not solve this.

What is the pipe? Where should I look to solve this one?

Thanks in advance,
Pjotr
