Resolution:

Error code 700036 usually indicates that the WMI (Windows Management Instrumentation) service is not started. Normally, the Windows Management Instrumentation is started/automatic. The Q local installation uses the service to get system information. If the service is not running the install might fail.
 
To resolve this error, have the end user re-enable/start the service and reinstall. If the service fails to start, etc; it might indicate a corrupted/shot OS; as the WMI is a core component.
 
Note: As a quick diagnostic, have the user go to Start -> Run -> msinfo32. If they get an error along the lines of info could not be obtained then it indicates a problem with WMI.
 
Note: Also have the end user go to Start -> Run -> wmimgmt.msc. Select properties (from the toolbar). If  there is an error, there is a system issue.
