General Permissions mess

Hello, Maybe someone can help me. I have a simple HP Pavillion with Vista
Home Premium Edition. Lately I have been unable do perform any installation
of any software, and I bought a new printer yesterday and it is impossible to
go though the installetion (worked OK on my other computers). I kepp getting
errors such as:
- Fatal error 2203
- Error 1603 - Fatal error during installation
- Error 1310. Error writing to file C:\Config.Msi\13f2ff. Verify that you
have access to that directory
- Fatal error... Msi.Fax
- Fatal error... Msi.Toolbox.

HP tried tyo help but the problem is not with the printer or the installer
but with laptop permissions. I am not an expert on computers...

Thanks to anyone who might have an idea on how to restore he settings all
together, or sthg like that.

Ph.

First thing to try is System Restore to when things worked correctly.
