Windows Media (Media Center, Media Player) Fails to Install

I recently wiped my PC clean, to reinstall Win 7 after the MS Nannies kept me
from doing anything administrative with files and folders ("you don't have
rights to....").
After re-installing a clean Win 7, which by the way did not still fix all of
the rights issues, my Windows Media Center and Windows Media Players never
went in right. Several other MS programs don't update correctly, and nothing
that the KB says fixes the problem.
I've gone through my systems and tried to take ownership rights on
folders/files as needed, but it's so frustrating.
