Can't install flash player on 90% of office machines

Right we're running various HP's here all XP most with XP SP2 a few with SP3.

If I try to install flash player on them all it does is basically refresh the adobe screen,.

I go here http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash&promoid=BUIGP

Click on Agree and Install now , and the web page just refreshes .

I've tried the version checker and it comes up with nothing so guess it's not installed.

Tried the uninstall utility , checked the Internet explorer settings, and tried Download SubInACL from Microsoft to fix permission issues that prevent the Flash Player installation.

All to no avail. Followed them to the letter to.

Please can someone help, we're a media company and not being able to play flash files it a big problem.

    OK so for a laugh after bashing my head against bosses laptop for the entire morning and still getting the same as above.

    I thought I'd go back to the BBC website and play a video.

    It works. When I run the version checker it says WIN 9,0,124,0 now so it's definitly on there.

    How and when it installed as everytime I've run the install all that's happened is the above mentioned screen refresh.

    Wish I did know would make doing the other machiens so much easier.

    So just got to try this on all the other machines now.
