This is an old XP article but it might be suggesting that there is an access permissions type of problem?
You receive an "error 1603: A fatal error occurred during installation" error message when you try to install a Windows Installer package
http://support.microsoft.com/?scid=kb%3Ben-us%3B834484&x=11&y=7#appliesto
Can you start the install by right-clicking on any .exe and selecting the "Run As Administrator" option? What is the file extension of the install file? .msi or .msu will need a different approach.
Use the Vista instructions in this to reset to default the security settings.
How do I restore security settings to the default settings?

Hi wilfonline,
Access the link below and follow the steps mentioned by YiChun Chen MSFT, Moderator on Friday, February 26, 2010 9:23 AM to fix the issue:

This seems to indicate that your problem may be tied up with Microsoft .NET Framework, which seems to be the path you are following.
Error message when you try to install a 2007 Office program: "Error 1935. An error occurred during the installation of assembly component"
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/926804
Net Framework is listed in the "Turn Windows features on or off", section of Programs and Features. See if you can uninstall it and reinstall it by using the check box there.
You might find some more clues here?

Not many people are able to delete the "trustedinstaller" I wonder if congratulations are in order? I think you are probably right when you say that it could be a problem.

Is the Windows Modules Installer Service disabled in Services?
I don't know any way to create that user other from some sort of image backup or a reinstall of Windows. Perhaps others may know?
What recovery options come with your machine, do you have a retail DVD, or is it the usual OEM stuff?
Thank you for posting that extra information into this posting.
