I've been trying to reinstall my OP (Windows XP) but I keep getting an error message, that my Windows Installer is not functioning properly. (Error 1722)
Dell didn't send me a CD when I bought my laptop - so I've been accessing the Windows i385 folder EXE file. Looked up on how to remedy error messages and tried all I were straightforward.
I downloaded a 'recent' version of Windows Installer but still got the same error message. Honestly I can't find the file to see what version number I had or if it was really updated.
Seriously, I've spent ALL day on this. It's making me mental.
So I've been looking for a way to fix my installer. I've upgraded. Can't find the ''Windows installer clean up utility".
I'm ready to buy Windows 7, but I don't want to if I don't have to.
Recommendations?
