    I own a IQON laptop and im trying to install Paintshop pro but im getting an error message

    THE WINDOWS INSTALLER SERVICE COULD NOT BE ACCESSED. THIS CAN OCCUR IF UR RUNNING WINDOWS In SAFE MODE OR IF WINDOWS INSTALLER IS NOT INSTALLED CORRECTLY.

    What can i do to correct this problem so that i can put Paintshoppro onto my laptop

    Thanks in advance

    have you scanned for virus' or spyware? Do you have administrative privlidges?

    Go to control panel\administrative tools\services

    look for the windows installer server and ensure its not disabled.

    This is more of a Windows problem than a specific laptop problem.

    Go to Start/Run and type in: msiexec /unregister [click ok]


    Then Start/Run and type in: msiexec /regserver [click ok]

    Do you have admin rights ?

    Reboot at least

    Go to http://update.microsoft.com , this should install windows installer 3.1 if you need it

    if all else fails http://www.getpaint.net small but needs DotNet which if you don't already have is on the update site above.

    spyware ?

    turn off the antivirus scanner during the install ?
