I think that the reason you are not able to install microsoft works is because the Microsoft Works OEM version might be already installed on your computer. To check if Works is installed: Click on Start > Click on All Programs > Click on the folder Microsoft Works > Open Works application. If Works is not installed, then login to the computer using an Administrator account and try installing it. Click on Start > Computer > Open the Works 9.0 installation Folder (CD/DVD drive) > right-click on the Setup (.exe) file and select Run as Administrator

If the issue still persists try the following steps:

1. Click on Start > Search programs and files then type Run and press Enter

2. In the Run window, type msiexec /unreg then press ENTER

3. Repeat Step 1 and in the Run window, type msiexec /regserver then press ENTER

4. Try to install Works using the disc again
