Package installation failures

We have advertised the software update inventory tool to help manage our patches. Most have installed fine but even when running the advertised program again there are about 20 systems that failed with the same error.
I'm not understanding the explanation of the error and where to check the NT installation account properties. I would think that if there was a problem with the setup of the package it wouldn't have succeeded on any systems.
If anyone has had this error and could help me out it is greatly appreciated.
An error occurred while preparing to run the program for advertisement "RS12000E" ("Security Update Inventory Tool" - "Security Update Inventory Tool"). The operating system reported error 170: The requested resource is in use. Additional program properties:
Command line: \\CRBS0007\SMSPKGE$\RS10000C\s_scan.exe /s /cache
Working directory: \\CRBS0007\SMSPKGE$\RS10000CDrive letter (? = any): UNC

Possible cause: This message most commonly occurs when the program’s command-line executable file could not be found, when a required drive letter connection to a distribution point could not be established, or when the program is configured to use the Windows NT Client Software Installation Account but the account is not specified, could not be found, or does not have the appropriate permissions.
Solution: Check each of the items listed above.
 
Did you get any joy with this error, I know it was a while ago you posted it but I am getting exactly the same and I am looking for some help.
