I have found in 99% of the cases it is just best to install from scratch..... Bob You could be looking for a needle in a haystack..or registry, etc. An ounce of prevention provides a pound of cure!

Go to Computer Management and then Services and Applications then Services and scroll down to Windows Installer and check to make sure the Startup type is not set to Disabled. Also try re-installing the InstallShield software, as stated in the third link from 98 SE. InstallShield Engine 9.01 Are you 100% certain that the Installer service is not disabled? I haven't seen this error before, but I get this feeling that your service is offline. '96 Mercury Mystique GS 2.5L Auto '99 Honda Passport EX 3.2 4WD
