Ok i think my windows installer is broke but i cant figure out how to fix it

Basicly ill try to unistall or reistall when windows installer comes up it will just sit there then a error message comes up saying The windows installer service could not be acsessed
ths can happen because of windows mode or if windows installer is currenty not installed

This happens with java and other things too

You can fix this issue by restoring your machine to its original conditions. Your machine will re install every file that is corrupted if you have any data files that are corrupted or that have been erased. Good luck.

You didn't install server pack 3 did you? I got xp and i noticed that every xp i've owned server pack 3 always screwed up the computer.

Best thing to do is a system restore. basically gets rid of all your files, but it resets the system as well. Ive used it many times, but the downside is losing all your files..

same for me
