Error number 0x80040707 when trying to install audio drivers

My motherboard has a VIA audio chip and so I downloaded the Driver for it.I installed it and there was an audio deck and all, it worked fine. My Microphone wouldn't work and I though it was a driver issue and tried to uninstall the drivers(in the device manager) and reinstall Realtek drivers.The Realtek drivers wouldn't get installed and the VIA ones would still be there after restarting the PC.This happened twice,so I got frustrated and when gung-ho.I when into C drive and deleted all files I could find with via.I deleted the file with application the Vdeck(The device manager platform).Then I found the via platform in the control panel,I cursed myself and deleted it but it would show the same error

0x80040707. So I used an uninstaller software to do it,it warned that there would be leftover.I gave up on realtek and wanted my old drivers,but I deleted the audio manager without which I cannot us my headsets only(audio plays on both headsets and speakers).I downloaded the same Via file to install.I first got rid of the old via through the sound section in dev manager. This is where the problem starts when I install the driver it goes fine till "preparing to install",then it stops and I get the 0x80040707 error.I click "OK" then an "error 1628 can't install" comes up.I sighed and googled the issue.Went to regedit deleted all the keys on via and platform I could find.I also tried everything like disabling anti-virus,UAC,compatibilty etc at least everything online related to error 0x80040707. BUT IT WON'T WORK. So it goes till "preparing to install" I have the original install shield tab and one more opens with two sub tabs one is the error0x80040707 and the other is empty but named

"InstallShield-Platform".

Please help me,I've tried for two days.
