When I reboot my desktop machine (running XP), I get an error in an installation dialog box that says:

"Runtime error '-2147024893 (8070003)'"
Method '~' of object '~' failed"

On my laptop, when I got a couple of installation errors like that, they turned out to be the remnants of a virus that hadn't been completely removed, and running Malwarebytes Anti-Malware program got rid of them after McAfee VirusScan and AVG Freeware failed.

But on this computer, I've run a scan with McAfee and Anti-Malware, and they haven't found anything. When I search on "-2147024893," I find links to legitimate installation issues.

Does anyone recognize this? Or know whether I should worry about it? Or how to get rid of it?

Any help appreciated.
