Distribute/ Re-Install Applications

A certain number of PC's attached to our LAN have Macromedia Flash installed on them. For some reason the application failes on start up & requests that it be re-installed. Is it possible to re-install from our server to each PC rather than having to re-install on each & every PC individually.
I've just inherited a MS Server 2003 LAN system & haven't any real knowledge in their day to day operation, other than to re-boot when faced with a problem. Thanks.

Yeah you have some choices but, they all take some knowledge. A .msi repackager along with logon bats and group policy do this very well. I would investigate why all of them need to be reinstalled though as you might not need to. it could be a permissions issue on the users domain accounts or local pc accounts
