Posted July 21, 2006 I've had Windows Live for a few months now, but when I try to log in it says I have to download a new version in order to log in. I try to download but it says every time that it failed to install due to Windows INstaller not being properly installed. I get error code 1603. Can anyone help, as I can no longer log in to my MSN account. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted July 21, 2006 Yeah I tried reinstalling but it seems Windows Installer is having none of it. It says either I'm running in Safe Mode which I'm not, or Windows Installer isn't installed properly, which I just installed! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 21, 2006 Hmm i got this with my old computer, but on my new one it works fine. I just recommend just uninstalling it and installing msn 7.5. Theres not much difference. Really. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted July 21, 2006 This happened to me once, it worked when I let it change my homepage, I don't know if it still asks you to do that. If that doesn't work do this: Restart your computer. Download it again. Try installing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 21, 2006 I went back from live to 7.5, breath of fresh air if you ask me. Didn't like it at all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
