After completing the installation of XP SP3 and the necessary restarts I am unable to install any new software that uses the Windows Installer. Also tried re-registering per the KB and restarting to have it work properly but no luck.
Everytime I restart the windows installer installation always runs, the event viewer shows no issues.

Trying to install even after manually starting the service fails.
Going to the WindowsUpdate site sends me on an endless loop of choosing teh express or custom install and 'Register or reinstall the files for me now (Recommended)' selection.
If I go to the Windwos Installer Service, select the dependencies tab it shows error 'Interface: Class not registered'

I'm lost. I'm having the same issue, and have tried the Windows Update but see nothing regarding a new installer. I also attempted a System Restore going back to the day prior to installing SP3 with no luck. Any other ideas?

Don't know...after I installed XP - SP 3, the Windows Update HAD a new installer version, which I downloaded and it was installed. I seem to recall that is was bundled with another update. I always read the details lest I get something that I have previosly hidden. Anyway, Windows Downloads had a copy there as well. Try there and do a search for it , but it should be on their listing.. -
