Whenever I attempted an install setup is automatically closed in task manager. I think some error occurs in registry but I don't have any registry cleaner. Please advise me of a free registry cleaner

The simple solution is to reinstall Windows XP. – Ramhound Jun 28 '12 at 15:01

If SEP is in fact Symantec Endpoint Protection, there is a possible issue that can cause this.
SEP Tech Support has a number of references. This is one that I had on hand:
- Open Regedit
- Go to
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager - On the right hand side, delete the value
PendingFileRenameOperations - Run the install without rebooting the PC
In some cases you may need to copy the installer locally if trying to install from a network location. Not always an issue but seemed to be in some cases.
