Windows installer
Problems with this are stopping me installing anything...grrrrr...
A google search leads me to think I need a registry fix....soooo I download a couple of "free" reg fix program...only to either a) it only
scans free or b) it only fixes a few prolems....
Bastards...if it really isn't free why waste your time thinking it is?
Anyway guys....any ideas?

I believe that you can download windows installer from Microsoft as a separate program - perhaps you could reinstall form this?

Yeah, I did download a windows installer fix program........
But, it would not install because I have a windows installer problem...DUH....
I also tried a complete WI program, but it said wrong OS....
Thanks for the suggestion though...
