    Hi eZak,
    I don't now how to help you technically but,
    how about inspecting your installation CD/DVD? Is there scratches on it. If you are not sure, try to copy all of its content to a folder in your HDD, and see if it is successfully done. You can even try to install it from there.

    There is an excellent response to this problem, with numerous suggestions, here:

    .
    .

    Even logged in on the Admin ID, Win 7 does not give you full update rights to the machine. It is a feature of Win7. Try right clicking on the installation file and select "Run As Admin" to run the installation.

    Here is the rest of my "full collection" of access rights tips. Hopefully you can find one that will do the trick for you:

    How to fix Access Rights problem Sometimes the problem has been that Windows has had problems granting the right access to files, folders and the registry. The following tips provide some workarounds.
    As you go from XP to Vista to Win7 certain operations require higher access rights to perform. These access rights are “higher” than even those granted to the Administrator ID by default. These “elevated” rights are accessed by way of the UAC confirmation dialog which is invoked when you select to “Run As Administrator”.
    In theory, any one of the following tips should work. The process is: run one of the fixes, run each affected Office app, reboot TWICE (sorry, I don’t know why, but there appears to be some “Voodoo” at play here. We do it because it works!) TWICE (sorry, I don’t know why, but there appears to be some “Voodoo” at play here. We do it because it works!), try the office apps again to confirm the fix worked.

    One thing that has changed is that I no longer get an error code! Just a short message saying '....there was an error during install'
