Dan;
Maybe one of these will help.
--------------------------------
"The Windows Installer service could not be accessed. This can occur if you
are running in safe
mode or if the Windows Installer is not correctly installed. "
This error is probably the result of a damaged registration service.
To resolve this issue:
1. Open a CMD.EXE prompt.
2. Type msiexec /unregister and press Enter.
3. Type msiexec /regserver and press Enter.
that is it .. As frustrating as it was it should be fixed now

The Windows Installer service could not be accessed' on Windows XP?
When you attempt to install a program that uses Windows Installer, such as
Office XP, you receive:
============================
Error 1719, 'The Windows Installer Service could not be accessed'?
When you run an MSI package, you receive:
Error 1719. The Windows Installer Service could not be accessed. You may be
running in Safe mode or Windows Installer may not be correctly installed.
To fix this problem:
1. Use the Registry Editor to navigate to:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\MSIServer
2. Double-click the ImagePath Value Name, a REG_EXPAND_SZ data type, and
verify that the data string is %SystemRoot%\System32\msiexec.exe /V, where
%SystemRoot% is the location of your OS, like C:\Winnt or C:\Windows.
3. Shutdown and restart in Safe mode by pressing F8 when the boot menu
displays.
4. After you log on, run msiexec /regserver.
5. Shutdown and restart normally.
============================
Maybe the Windows Installer service is disabled on the machine. From the
Start menu select Run and type "services.msc". Double-click on the service
named "Windows Installer". Check the value in the 'Startup type:' field. If
it's currently set to "Disabled", then this is the problem. Change it by
selecting "Manual" from the drop-down box.
