windows installer

[Guest]

I have fixed the access problem, and now it rolls back the installation
because of a fatal error. it is only when i try to install a program using
windows installer. I dont have a problem using any other installer program. I
try to reinstall the windows installer package but i get an error saying that
the version i am trying to install is older than the one that i have. Any
suggestions? I have sp2, also
