when trying to remove skype it says ' 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 nor correctly installed. cantact your support personnel assistance.' really dont know what to do

 

[Sunny Squash]

Thanks but I have no idea how to type msconfig into the run area

just realised when it loads up a window comes up for about 2 seconds saying something about svchost.exe

 

[Sunny Squash]

the skype message hasn't come up but it is still loading slowly and has no connection. but i found out svchost is in start up

There is always the option of installing windows back over the previous install, it should repair any system damage as a matter of course.

how i do this?

 

[Sunny Squash]

put windows in drive and boot from it, when it asks where to install show it the existing windows dir (some versions will detect you have windows already installed) it should ask if you want to repair that install, say yes

this should show windows setup with a blue screen?

 

[Sunny Squash]

It says which windows intallation would you like to log onto (to cancel press enter) after pressing r to repair. do i have to type something?

it ask for the administer password what is that? (my dad set up the pc for me and he is not hear)
