--- Comment #2 from Andre <awf....@googlemail.com> ---
This sounds like the openoffice401.msi has been removed manually from the
system directory ?:\Windows\Installer\.   Doing this manually is usually a bad
idea, causes the registry to become out-of-sync, and can easily explain any
following errors.
However, files in ?:\Windows\Installer are usually (at least on Windows 7)
renamed to a string of hexadecimal digits or, alternatively, to a UUID.  An msi
still being named 'openoffice401.msi' is unexpected.  Either the behavior
changed in Windows 8 or it is just the error message that substitutes
openoffice401.msi (the original name) for the UUID.
Anyway, this can probably only be fixed by cleaning up the Windows registry. 
Something that can easily destroy the whole system.
