lite installer error message

[Guest]

everytime i boot up i receive an error message saying "lite installer must
exit due to problem". windows help center suggested loading updates to
correct problem. this did not work as i still receive error message. what
is the "lite installer" and how do i fix this from happening everytime i boot
up?

Inspect the startup:
Microsoft Windows XP - Isolate problems using the Startup tab:

but i do not know how to get to the "general tab" that it states to use when
i reboot? do you know?
