Have you looked in Event Viewer under "Application" to see if there are any entries for Windows Installer?

If so, double click on the entry and take note of the error code (Event ID)

oh yes i've already done that..
I've tried to install many programs, and all have failed...i've got the same event id as everything else..
Event ID:11708(MsiInstaller)....
already tried the microsoft website...but it says tht no help is available..
Is this some kind of a spyware or virus?

Uninstall the windows installer thru add/remove programs.
Then INSTALL FROM MS SITE THE INSTALLER 3.2V2

[tushki]

well...actually when i got the problem, i googled it...went ti microsoft..found out that i had the installer 3.1 only.
Even then, i've downloaded and installed the msinstaller 3.1v2 again frm the site, and installed...problem still persists

Try to re-register Windows installer. Go to Start then Run then type in cmd then type in msiexec /unregister and then press Enter, then type in msiexec /regserver then hit enter.
