Hi guys need a little help on this as it's driving me up the wall.

firstly bit of system info

I-mac 20 inch 2.4ghz
running Mac OS X version 10.5.2
XP pro sp2 installed via bootcamp

Issue:

Have installed xp pro sp2 via bootcamp and successfully joined to our windows domain, group policies defining start menu's etc are working but MSI's are not. Have edited registry to have a value for RealTimeIsUniversal which was discussed on several forums as a solution but this hasnt worked.

Just can't get software to install via MSI's......

Any help greatly appreciated

If you have not updated to the latest installer from MS you should do so and try again. Read and download from here:

Fixed this now.

Checked the services running on windows and noticed Apple time service was running, should have checked here before lol. When i stopped this service from running the MSI's installed after the next restart.

Thanks anyways
