Error code: 0x80070641 (Zune Install)

I'm trying to install Zune Software 3.0 but all I get is an error saying:

"The Windows Installer Service could not be accessed. This can occur if you
are running Windows in Safe Mode, or if Windows Installer is not correctly
installed..."


I am not running windows in safe mode...I go to windows update to get
updates but I don't have any required. I am running on WINXP Home Ed SP3. So
what seems to be the problem??

Please help me anyone? This is my first time installing the software.

Thank you Mark!

I figured it has something to do with me cleaning my installer.


Now it works.
