Hi mara2014,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I have read your post on a fatal error message appearing during installation, and I would be happy to assist you!
Since you have already uninstalled and reinstalled the software on your computer, I recommend performing a Level 3 Uninstall. This will cleanly remove any lingering software that may not have been removed during any of the uninstallation.
To perform a Level 3 Uninstall, please proceed with the following:
Hold down the Windows Logo key on the keyboard and the 'R' to open the run box, type %temp%
Delete all files and folders from the temp folder. Choose skip if any pop ups appear saying any of the files could not be deleted
Follow the link providedand select the bit version of Windows 8.1 you are using. Once you have this selected, download the full feature software.
After the software downloads and extracts, open the temp folder again, use the instructions from step 1
Look for, and open the folder starting with 7z (Example: 7zS2356)
Open folder Util
Open folder CCC
If you have anHP computer run the L3uninstall.exe. If you have anon-HP computer run the L4uninstall.exe
When the uninstall has completed restart the computer
. Follow these steps to reset the registry settings and options for Windows Installer.
Hold down the Windows Logo key on the keyboard and the 'R' to open the run box
In theOpenbox, type msiexec /unreg, and then clickOK.
Hold down the Windows Logo key on the keyboard and the 'R' to open the run box

If you have any difficulty with this step, please use this link to perform it another way. Restarting Windows Installer

The HP Printer Install Wizard for Window was created to help Windows 7, Windows 8, and Windows 8.1 users download and install the latest and most appropriate HP software solution for their HP Printer. If you have Windows Vista or XP you will need to open the download from step 3, let it extract again, and begin the install.
If you experience an issue installing at this point, please post back with any applicable screenshots. How to take and post a screenshot on HP Support Forum.
Please also post back with your operating system, and whether you have an HP computer or computer from another manufacturer. Step 8 from above, specifies to only run the L4uninstall.exe if you do not have an HP computer. It would help me to know which uninstall you used and what brand of computer you have.
Most install errors are stored in the Windows Event Viewer, identifying the error ensures that you get the best troubleshooting steps for your error. Follow the instructions below to find the error code.
