Hi
Since I used the feature add and remove programs and removed a bunch of
not used programs I have had problems with my Windows installer (3.1
v2).
When restartin the installer appears as a "preparing installation box"
on the screen doing some installations (for the small icons on the left
bottom qick tool bar it seems).
When I try to download and install programs (like Java script) I get
the following error message " The Windows Installer Service could not
be accessed. This can occur if you are running Windows in safe mode, or
if the windows istaller is not correctly installed."
I dont know if I am in some sort of safe mode but as far as I know that
is something you should choose to be whn bootin up the system and I
have not done that.
I have tried setting up service pack 2 again (someone claimed it could
fix the installer aswell), I have tried the "add and remove programs"
and removed the installer and then installed it again but nothing seems
to help.
I seem to have only one option and that is reinstall the whole XP again
or?
Please help.
