You have a bodgy system configuration, then. That shouldn't happen on a
correct Windows install.

Make sure that the location pointed to by %TEMP% is writable. You can
press "Start->Run" then type "%TEMP%" and press enter to open the %TEMP%
folder. Which folder is it? The full path to the folder should be shown
in the navigation bar. Check its security properties to make sure it's
writable.
