I have a Vista 32 bit Business PC with iTunes installed. I received a
message from Apple that there is an update to iTunes and I opted to download
and install it. The installation errored out with error 2203. I do not
have nor remember the rest of the details.

I had a really had time uninstalling iTunes with the intention of
uninstalling and reinstalling but even the uninstall ran up against this
error 2203. I finally got it uninstalled but was then unable to reinstall
with any version - again error 2203.

I decided to wipe the disk and perform a clean install of Vista, including
Office 2007, and iTunes, my main products. Of course I also downloaded and
installed the various M/S updates for both Vista and Office.

I then wanted to install a new product, The Print Shop by Brouderbund and
that required dot net v1 and was supplied on the installation CD. Guess
what. upon installing the dot net v1, I got the error 2203, on this new
install.

I've googled this and have come across many ideas and solutions, none of
which worked for me. Some of these solutions referenced some M/S pages and
talked about the Microsoft Installer. But, hmmmmmm, nothing from Redmond
officially about 2203.

Any ideas????

thanks,

Update:

The product I was trying to install needed .net framework 1.1 and failed
with the 2203 error.

I find a solution that did not work - give my %temp% full permissions to
everyone.
