Hi,
When I try to install programs, I get the following error:
"Windows Installer service could not be accessed."
I have checked that the service is set to enabled and to automatically
startup. When I manually start it, the following occurs:
"The Windows Installer service on Local Computer started and then
stopped. Some services stop automatically if they have no work to do,
for example, the Perfromance Logs and Alerts service"
I am running Win Xp Home with SP2, and I am the administrator, as weel
as the sole user.
