  Try to install.
  If it works, please make sure you turn UAC.

  Where is the UAC:

  Start button > Control Panel > column on the left, select Classic view > user accounts > select user accounts enable or disable > uac prompt > uncheck "use account control...". "

  Windows Setup does not load in safe mode, that's why you get the error probably. Why are you installing in safe mode? Why not normal mode?

  can you send me a link? I can't find. and I tried the steps that you suggested but no luck.

  RE: latest version of Windows Installer
  Someone suggested that. I don't have.
  This person post disappears from this thread. Don't ask me how or why.

  To answer your question, here is the link: Windows Installer redistributable version

  Use the download that applies to your version of bits, i.e. 32-bit OS or 64-bit.
  86 = 32 bits

• Call of duty Modern Warfare 2 error: the system administrator has set policies to prevent this installation.

  I have Windows Vista.

  When you try to install COD MW2 disc, I get the following message is displayed:

  The system administrator has set policies to prevent this installation.

  Then it continues with the installation of the first disc perfectly, but the problem occurs with the second disc. When you are prompted to enter the second drive I do and he doesn't recognize. The drive doesn't look like it runs as if it is scanned intermittently. STEAM will freeze and (no response) as well as menu my computer and the DVD disk drive. So far, I can't find any solution to my problem.

  I had the game earlier on the same pc but had to uninstall STEAM temporarily.

  Any help would be appreciated! Thank you.

  Thank you for your response. However I can't find the "local security policy" in administrative tools. Not sure if it's because of Vista.

  However I managed to the second drive yesterday after many many attempts. It seemed to work when I changed the AutoPlay settings to open the folder and view the files. I have no idea why, but he was able to read the disc in this way, after a few attempts.

  Thanks anyway. :)
