Error code 2755 when attempting to install Python 2.7.5 or 3.3.2

I am trying to install Python on my Windows 7 Ultimate 32bit machine, but after going through all of the installation settings 'n' stuff it shows this for a while: Installing..?

before showing this, then the 'Installer quit prematurely' message and exiting:
Oh dear...

I have tried rebooting, redownloading twice, trying 3.3.2 instead of 2.7.5 etc etc.

Can anybody help me?

How do I install Python 2.7 on Windows?

First, download the latest version of Python 2.7 from the official website. If you want to be sure you are installing a fully up-to-date version, click the Downloads > Windows link from the home page of the Python.org web site . The Windows version is provided as an MSI package.

What to do if Python is not installing?

Check again that the Python path is installed properly and try running the command "py" or "python" in the Command Prompt to see if it starts. If it doesn't start and Python is installed on your computer, manually add Python's install location to your PATH.

Make sure C:\Windows\Installer exists (if windows is installed in C:).

If it doesn't, just create it and run the installer again.
