I'VE GOT A BIG PROBLEM WITH WINDOWS INSTALLER

When i tried to install a program for my Logitech Camera,
this is the message I get after it extracts the files
required for the installation:

The Windows Installer Service could not be accessed. This
can occur if you are running Windows in safe mode, or if
the Windows Installer is not correctly installed. Contact
you support personnel for assistance.

Can anybody please please PLEASE! help me???

Thanks for any advice regarding this matter.

By the way, is there a way in which i can uninstall
windows installer and reinstall it again??? What do u
think? Would that work?

Ciao!
 
Try this other otherwise go to the suggested links to find more information.
Good luck.

To unregister and re-register Windows Installer:
Click Start, and then click Run.
Type in the Open box: msiexec /unregister and then click OK.
Click Start, and then click Run.
Type in the Open box: msiexec /regserver click OK.
Type commands exactly, including the space between c and /.

This will not affect programs which use Windows Installer that are already
installed.
