Windows Vista not reponding: Windows Installer, Office 2007 (Outlook), add/remove programs, System Restore, etc...

Gentleperson,

I am looking for a solution fix my PC, HP Pavilion Slimline. Windows install Office 2007 (Outlook), add/remove programs and the system restore will not work. The apparent problem is a file corrupted in the system, based on the forums of Windows and Office 2007 and published articles.

I tried the following:

  • Retore system Mode safe mode and in Safe Mode network - without success
  • In Normal Mode Windows Vista will not respond to the system restore or the Add/Remove programs - without success
  • Chkdsk/r - unsuccessfully
  • sfc/scannow won't answer - no success
  • Msconfig.exe helped with a clean boot; However, this does not solve the problem...
  • Windows Installer is in auto status, but can not start; I have a 1053 error messsage... too slow

As it can be seen, there is a problem with my operating system. I have a recovery disk to format my PC in its original configuration. However, I have not saved my files that I won't lose to the formatting. Please advice.

Thanks in advance,

Lhorea

I have general thing is you did not run memory diagnostic
(% SystemRoot%\system32\MdSched.exe).
 
You can try the recovery prompt environment SFC. Startup type
Repair in Help and see

  • Windows install is missing in Add/Remove programs or programs & features.

    I bought a new HP scanner, but can't get its software to function properly.  After 2 hours on the phone with the help of HP (and very useful), they say that I miss my Windows Installer.  I downloaded Windows install 4.5 MS, but when he ran got "the update does not apply to your system."  It was KB942288-v2-x 86.msu for Vista on a 32-bit computer.

    Using Vista SP2? If so, the Microsoft Installer 4.5 is already included! "A programmer is just a tool that converts the caffeine in code" Deputy CLIP - http://www.winvistaside.de/
