VPN Client Install Problems Windows XP

[smartin]

I'm getting the following errors (See attached) when I try installing the VPN client (ALL VERSIONS).

I've tried everything short of installing the OS.

Thanks.

I had a similar problem with XP when I tried to install Service Pack 2. I thingk it is a permissions thing. YOU think that you are logged in as an administrator, but then are some registry areas that don't see this as such, so when certain parts of the Cisco Client try to install, such as the adapter, Access is Denied! See Microsoft Knowledge Bass Article 873148 for an idea of how to go into the XP machine registry and "take ownership" of all files. Then you should be able to install the client.
