    Hello

     
     

    1. which Microsoft Fixit did you?

    3. who is the antivirus installed on the computer program?

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/disable-antivirus-software
    Note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you need to disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network, while your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

  • Windows Installer keeps trying to install msi.status but it will not install

    Windows Installer keeps trying to install msi.status but it will not install and I think he got the other updates to the installation.  How difficult or get rid of it?

    Hello
    In my view, that it is a software HP printer problem. Please, try the following:

    If you have the HP software on your PC support (printers, etc.)
    the disc when the pop-up window displays a location '1'. Click Browse
    then open the HP disc in the CD drive. A named icon status should
    appear. Click on this icon and load. This will get rid of the
    Status.msi loop.

    If you do not have the original disc. Uninstall HP Photosmart all-in-One Driver software and HP update program - then only reinstall the HP Photosmart all-in-One Driver software. Do not update, just live with it. The web link for the full features of the software download is provided below.
