If the above solution does not work, try these:

2.) This error message can also occur under the following circumstances:
A. If you have an anti-virus application enabled during installation
B. If you are running Windows XP and have Norton Firewall on during the download and/or installation

The solution to (A) is to disable the anti-virus application during the installation of the program.

The solution to (B) is to disable the Norton Firewall during the download and the installation. Windows XP has a built-in Internet Connection Firewall that you can enable while the Norton Firewall is disabled.

3.) Most people who have this problem are using NAV... Was a previous version of NAV uninstalled recently?

4.) Reinstall Windows Installer. or Repair it with following steps:
When registration of the engine is corrupted, all attempts to run .msi packages fail.

(i) To correct the registration of the Windows Installer, unregister and then register the Installer service using the command line switches shown below. This shuts down and reregisters the service, which assures that the Windows Installer engine should function properly. Enter the following commands from a command prompt:

msiexec /unregister
msiexec /regserver

(ii) If this fails to resolve your problem try performing the following steps:
1) Unregister Windows Installer:
msiexec /unregister
2) Rename the following files from the command prompt: Msi.dll, Msiexec.exe, and Msihnd.dll (by changing the names to msi.dll.bak, msiexec.exe.bak and msind.dll.bak respectively.)
3) Restart Windows.
4) Install the Windows Installer service again (InstMSI.exe).

 

If none of the above works try:

1) Go into WinRar and unassociate CAB files. If you don't have WinRAR then restore .zip file association using the following instructions : http://www.dougknox.com/xp/file_assoc.htm

2.) Delete the contents of the temp folder. Don't delete the folder itself.  Reference: http://www.asksam.com/faq.asp?file=faqs.ask&b=How%20to%20clear%20your%20TEMP%20directory...
