When you were installing windows did you get a temp file error and there is a funny DIR in C: that you never created???

If so the MSI script that installs things is looking for a file and cant find it cos during the windows install it was misplaced.

I found that 90% of programs wouldnt install and i got that error nothing i tried fixed it and only a reinstall of windows did it in the end.

Note that I found this by Googling for the error message. That should always be your first step.
