Hello,
Thanks for posting!
I suggest you attempt to try the following methods.
Step1. Check Registry Permission
=============
1. Log on to your computer as an administrator.
2. Click Start, and then click Run.
3. In the Open box, type cmd, and then click OK.
4. At the command prompt, type msiexec.exe /unregister, and then press
ENTER.
5. Type msiexec /regserver, and then press ENTER.
6. Verify that the SYSTEM account has full control access permissions to
the HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT hive in the Windows registry. In some cases, you may
also have to add Administrator accounts. To do so:
(Warning: Serious problems might occur if you modify the registry
incorrectly by using Registry Editor or by using another method. These
problems might require that you reinstall your operating system. Microsoft
cannot guarantee that these problems can be solved. Modify the registry at
your own risk.)
1) Click Start, click Run, type regedit in the Open box, and then click OK.
2) Click the following registry hive:
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT
3) On the Edit menu, click Permissions.
4) If SYSTEM is not listed in the Group or user names list, click Add, make
sure that the local computer name appears in the From this location box,
type system in the Enter the object names to select box, click Check Names,
and then click OK.
5) Click SYSTEM in the Group or user names list, and then select the Full
Control check box under Allow in the Permissions for SYSTEM box.
6) Click Apply, click OK, and then quit Registry Editor.
7. Restart the computer to test.
Step2. Reregister Windows Installer
=============
Unregister Windows Installer, and then reregister Windows Installer. To do
this, follow these steps:
1. On the "Start" menu, click "Run:.
2. In the "Open" box, type "msiexec /unreg", and then press ENTER.
3. On the "Start" menu, click "Run".
4. In the "Open" box, type "msiexec /regserver", and then press ENTER.
Step3. Upgrade to Windows Installer newer version
=============
For more information, please refer to the following article:
893803: Windows Installer 3.1 v2 (3.1.4000.2435) is available
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/893803/en-us
Step4. Empty user and system "temp" folders
=============
1. Empty "%systemdrive%\temp" folder.
2. Empty "%systemdrive%\%windir%\temp" folder.
3. Empty "%systemdrive%\Documents and Settings\%username%\Local
Settings\Temp".
