  My guess would be that you are running a version of Windows that OneCare doesn't support.  Supported OS versions are 32-bit Windows XP SP2 and Windows Vista both 32 and 64-bit.
  
  Trying to run the installation with an older Windows version like 9x/ME or 2000 will generate this error as I recall.

  I've moved this post to the Install and Activate forum.
  
   

  See this post for the KB article to troubleshoot install problems - http://social.microsoft.com/forums/en-US/onecareinstallandactivate/thread/ba26b781-da18-4ce4-be8c-22647bd5d8fc/

   
  If this is a new installation of a PC that meets the minumum system requirements for OneCare, and the problem persists, please contact support.

  If it is a reinstall, please run the cleanup tool before trying to install from http://onecare.live.com again.
  The cleanup tool can be found here -
