I thought our GPO for the LANDesk 9 Agent was working fine but i'm I seem to be noticing an issue on some Windows 7 machines where the agent is not getting installed.
I recreated a new AdvanceAgent and confirmed the path to the .exe was correct.
I did gpupdate /force on my machine.
I get the following error in c:\windows\temp\AdvanceAgent. This is from a previous attempt at installing the Agent. I dont see any new logs being created.

I checked under HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Installer\Products for an AdvanceAgent GUID to delete but couldnt find any.
Event Log is showing..
The assignment of application Advance Agent from policy LANDesk 9 Agent Install failed. The error was : %%1274
The removal of the assignment of application Advance Agent from policy LANDesk 9 Agent Install failed. The error was : %%2
Failed to apply changes to software installation settings. The installation of software deployed through Group Policy for this user has been delayed until the next logon because the changes must be applied before the user logon. The error was : %%1274
The Group Policy Client Side Extension Software Installation was unable to apply one or more settings because the changes must be processed before system startup or user logon. The system will wait for Group Policy processing to finish completely before the next startup or logon for this user, and this may result in slow startup and boot performance.
I have also attached a screenshot of my GPO. Any ideas?
