I get this error, usually when I try to upgrade a particular program:

The Windows Installer Service could not be accessed. This can occur if you
are running Windows in safe mode, or if the Windows Installer is not
correctly installed. Contact your support personnel for assistance.

I have already done a clean install and the reregistering methods. It
usually happens after I upgrade Opera. Now I can't upgrade or install
anything else. I'm still using Media Center 2005. If it helps, I got my
computer at Best Buy and have used the restoration software that came with
it. Would that have anything to do with that?
