Iam having big problem with my windows installer! I can't install hardly ANY program, or do any updates for Windows or any other program!
The 2 messages I constantly get are........

The windows installer Service could not be assessed.
This can occur if you are running windows in safe mode,or if the windows Installer is not correctly installed. Contact your support personnel for assistance.
