After doing a scandisk and defrag on my Win2K laptop, the Palm Desktop
program I use freezes on the initial logo and won't come up.
I decided to pop in the CD that came with my Tungsten E and try to
take the option to repair the desktop program. The installer appears
to fire up OK initially, but then issues the error:
"Error 1720. There is a problem with the Windows Installer package. A
script required for this install to complete could not be run. Contact
your support personnel or package vendor."
Incidentally, I get the same error when I try to uninstall the Palm
Desktop from "add/remove programs" in Control Panel.
I tried to download Windows Installer from the Microsoft website, but
when I try to install it I get the msg "This service already exists".
So now I'm stuck. Any ideas?
