well a clean install normally fixes any problems to do with the operating system maybe a problem in one of the updates  you may want to disable the UAC settings and see if that helps

well after a few hours search i manage to find a fix for the prob i had Laugh i had to like try different things so it was trial and error of sorts but this seem to do the trick here is the fix that i used

1. At Start type "regedit"
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
SYSTEM
CurrentControlSet
Services
MSIServer

right click on WOW64, select "Modify"
Change Value data from "1" to "0"

2. At "Start" type "run"
type "services.msc"
go to "Windows Installer" and stop and start the program.

3. Reboot computer.

 now everything seems to be installing fine (fingers crossed)
