I'm running WinXP Pro SP2 with all the latest patches and updates and recently had problems with the install and repaired it by doing a repair install over the current install.
Well after the repair install, I went to Windows Update and it prompted to download Windows Installer 3.1 but the problem is it won't install. I get a 'Access Denied' error.
I did already have the installer installed prior to the repairs being made to the OS.
Now I can't grab any updates from Windows Update because the installer needs to be installed first.
I've tried installing for both the redistributable package and Windows Update but both fail.
Anyone know how to fix this?
Thanks
