Are you still booting from the install media, or letting the computer boot from the hard HDD/SSD?
I aborted an install of something and now when I try to install it again (even after a reboot), it tells me that Setup is already running and then aborts. I think I got something stuck. Anyone ever have this and fix it? It won't let me disable the service, I can stop and start it but that isn't helping.
Yep, PEECEE GAMING

from the HD
You need to boot from the install media to fix it.
so just so we are on the same page
I wasn't trying to set up Windows, I was installing a game...it stalled so I hard aborted it
The only thing I can see online is to maybe disable Windows Installer service, reboot and then rerun (as opposed to just restarting the service)
I totally read that as installing windows. Can you get to the windows boot menu or advanced start-up menu?
You might have to repair windows, or at least use system restore.
