I tried to recreate the msi thinking it was corrupt. but
when i redeployed the package I get the same error. Can
someone try to help me and figure out why this package
wont install anymore.

I recently had this exact same problem. If you are
deploying the msi through the computer policy (which i
think you are) make sure that the system group has the
necessary access to the installation share. If you are
using the computer accounts themselves, it probably wont
work.
