There has (sic) to be more people than me that has issues with Windoze
Installer.
All of them would consult:
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=555175

I've gone through every freakin' iteration of Installer repair
suggestions.
Clearly you've missed (at least) one.

Done hour after hour of MSKB articles, Googled the livin' crap out of
what miserly error messages WinCrap spits out. Even called MS support
for the first time in 20 years.
What did they say?

Still can't get any progs with an .msi install extension to work
reliably. No scanner, network, etc. Some work but the big ones like
scanner etc won't. HP sux as much as MicroCrap.
Define 'reliably'.

If anybody has a quick fix for this please let me know.
Certainly try ...

Please don't start asking me questions about System, hardware,
software,
services, yadda-yadda.
... well that's that then!

Been there, done that.
So I see ...

I'm not trying to be a smart-ass or know-it-all.
... but suceeding.

Later......
Much, much later - probably never!

Yeah, yeah let's not get off on the wrong foot.

I'm serious about the Installer prob but totally fed-up with the
responses I've received up 'till now. Not from the NGs but from the
suppliers of this bloatware called an Operating System. aka:Windoze. I
knew I was in trouble when I broke down and installed 3.11 on my 286.
It's been an uphill struggle ever since.

Just PO'ed at Bill. Nice to see him using his power for the good. All
is not forgiven tho. Endless days of configuring, setting-up, repairing
and generally being a maintenance man for Billy Gs screw-ups tends to
piss one off.

Gimme a break why don'tcha? It's my birthday, 52nd, and I'm half/pissed
on Appleton Estate Jamaican Rum and some pretty sweet medicinal herb.

Must be getting to be Spring down there about now, eh?

Getting a little frosty up here in Northern Alberta.

Forget the shrimp mate, I'll bring some venison for the barbie. :0)


Later......
