re: A better fix for this isscript.msi problem Thursday, June 13, 2002 at 7:33 pm Windows XP Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by kjohnson (1 messages posted) I don't have this in my register and I can't install any new apps. All I get is...can't find ISSCRIPT.MSI and I have downloaded it and installed but nothing works...I am ready to throw my computer in the street and then go run over it. Any other ideas would be greatly appreciated.
