Can't install sqlncli.msi

When trying to install sqlncli.msi on Windows XP SP2 I get the following
error
"The system administrator has set policies to prevent this installation"
Given that I am the system administrator ...
What do I need to do to resolve this ?
What policies have been set ?Can you execute any msi? Or is it just with this windows
intaller package?
Try checking the local policies on the PC for windows
installer using the group policy editor snap in.
From the run command, run gpedit.msc
Go to Computer Configuration, then to Administrative
templates, then to Windows Components, then to Windows
Installer.
You could also be hitting this:

Did you check the windows installer service on the PC
itself? Is it manual or running?
Did you also try updating your windows installer?
