• Error message: Windows Installer could not be accessed.

  A maintenance program that I run called System Mechanic deleted my Windows Installer and I think messed up its registry.  Everytime I try to reinstall the installer, I get an error that reads, "this update is not for your version of windows."  I tried all the available downloads.  Nothing works and I'm afraid that a full system restore is my only option.  Furthermore, none of my restore points of work to solve the problem.  Is there something that can be done?

• Install Windows service could not be accessed.

  Yesterday on 5/21 tried java update (I think that updated 6-20) a few times and I kept making this mistake.  Each time, my computer would have to screen "installation preparation" for about 10-15 min then I would get the "install windows" (shown in the title) error message. Then all the functions of the computer would not respond and I have to make a stop forced down.

  I am running Vista Home Premium on an HP Presario - 2G of RAM, I have Panda Global 2010, using Spybot, including running on startup and the teatimer, using Advanced SystemCare defined planning of home user daily.

  My computer problems started 5/11 my mouse started acting erractically and travel wherever whenever, completely on the screen, to and from the boxes, with or without my hand or to disable the mouse, I changed the batteries freaked out a lil showed to others what he was, thought the call of ghost hunters , I tried every piece of advice in these forums, used white paper, the updated drivers to update, put the receiver closer to the mose cleaned laser etc.. Something stopped my Google 3D 5/18 it would open and close after using it about 3-5 min, so I uninstalled.  Have not reinstalled again.  Go ahead.  My Panda Global Shuts Down constantly, I always have to re-open and use the fix on it.  Panda and everything Google has had problems ever since lil.

  I used MS malicious tool as well as my procedures already set out to solve the possibilities of spyware etc.. Said everthing clean! I ran all the various MS "Fix It" tools in the box.

  I went to SERVICES' from my computer and Windows install is 'Automatic', however it does not keep running, in properties Recovery - tab, the settings for the failures are set to restart under 1st 2nd and void failures.  Windows Module Installer, it is set to manual, I've set it to automatic and tried this way however something guard back to the manual.

  System Restore NOGOOD because he only returned to 5/12, does anyone know how to solve these problems as well as the original settings by default of 'SERVICES' that they are supposed to be or how a readable to them easy card? Because it is possible that the registry programs have changed their.  Does anyone know is there some virus crazy etc or has someone in China found a way to dial in our computers and move our mouse and screw with us that we, Americans have not fugured out yet and he ripped out as dust and just battery problems?  Now, I may sound crazy and it's OK, but my mouse moves in the best time similar to when its time to check some boxes, or when I was in the Task Manager, once it was as if I had to fight against an unknown with my mouse f force *.  I don't know where to start, it's the crazy possible virus or the management console?  Can anyone help?
