Hi Jose,

                This is caused by Windows Installer having problems with connecting to the installation server. You can try to unregister and re-register Windows Installer. Here is a step to do that:

1. On Start Search look for Run or press Windows button + R.
2. On the run box type in “msiexec /unreg” and then Enter.
3. Bring up the Run box again, and then type in “MSIEXEC /regserver” and then Enter.

OR check for Windows update to downloaded bug fixes for Windows components.
