  COM is Component Object Model [URL] I'm not a programmer, so I don't know a lot about COM functionality. The issue you are having is related to security. The program is trying to perform an action that it cannot complete. It cannot access a required component or perform an action. The reason it cannot complete this action is likely related to a security or permission issue.
Hello, I am trying to install OpenManage Server Administrator 6.5 on Dell 2600 on Windows 2003R2, SP2.  I have download the current version for this server.  I try to install this software on this server and I get this error message: Error: MSI failed to extract support files.  This can occur if you do not have a sufficient COM permission on this system.  See the readme file for details on how to fix COM permission problems. I have tried to look for this readme file that it refers to and I don't see it.  I have tried to search online to troubleshoot and hitting brick walls.  Any help on this would be appreciated. Thank you in advance. Gerald
