    Was looking thru my event log and I noticed this.
    Faulting application name: TrustedInstaller.exe, version: 6.1.7601.17514, time stamp: 0x4ce7989b
    Faulting module name: wcp.dll, version: 6.1.7601.17592, time stamp: 0x4da00342

    I went looking in winsxs folder and I found 2 different folders these file versions are in

    amd64_microsoft-windows-servicingstack_31bf3856ad364e35_6.1.7601.17514_none_678566b7ddea04a5
    and
    amd64_microsoft-windows-servicingstack_31bf3856ad364e35_6.1.7601.17592_none_672ce6c3de2cb17f

    the first one was created 12/30/2011 and the other was created 12/27/2011
    it looks like a registry problem now, and the trusted installer is being pointed to the wrong folder.
    since sfc doesn't seem to work is there another way to correct this entry?

    I wouldn't worry too much about teh versioning - they are normal :)
    You seem to have a variety of problems, stemming from failing RAM at some point - this means that anything written to the HD during that period is questionable. Your best option, and quickest recovery is almost certain to be a clean install, even if it is painful.

    Yeah that is what I figured. Going to be a painful weekend.

    Think yourself lucky - I have to create 6 new VM's and update them (but at least I can do the updating in the pub :) )
    Good luck with the reinstall.
