Hello

I'm new to this forum but have been struggling with my new pc that ha
Windows Vista home premium running on it.

The machine spec is

Intel core 2 quad cpu q6600 @ 2.40 ghz
3 gb ram
Nvidia Geforce 8800 GTX

At first the machine worked great, I use it mainly for gaming and hav
not really played anything other than Call of Duty 4, Bioshock, Compan
of Heroes and Crysis. All ran great.

I first started getting a problem when the 1.6 patch came out for COD
and when I downloaded it and tried installing it i kept getting th
reply.

Cod 4_1.6 patch installer has stopped working.

I'm also getting the same problem when I try and install team speak
and AVG 8. Small programmes I have downloaded or got from Pc mags wil
never install as well as demo's. Although large programmes like game
and such still install.

I tried reinstalling Vista which at first worked, I reinstalled Cod
and the 1.6 patch installed straight away. A week later they release
the 1.7 patch and when I went to install it I got the installer error
My account on the Vista is running as admin, I've tried using backward
compatiability ( more out of frustration ) as I know that they should b
working on Vista.

I just wondered if anyone else is having similiar problems or know
what I should do to solve it
