CD trouble

Yoou may need to head into your registry and delete a bit of stuff in there. There are some good walkthroughs for this on the orgs RTW troubleshooting section, should be stickied at the top.

I had to do that once. It took me so long to find a walkthrough (didn't think of looking for one on a RTW forum). Looking back, it was halarious. At the time it sucked so much. I kept getting a message saying that a more up-to-date version was installed, even though nothing was installed...

I had the same problem too. Although I found the walkthrough instantly, I tried it all over about 100 times. Didnt work for me. So i bought Gold and it worked. Then my computer got finished off in the summer heat. So i bough a new computer too.

There should be an easier way to remove all of it. Klick on the Start menu and the option Run. Browse and select your RTW CD/DVD. It should have three files listed. Choose "Setup" and run that.
It should give the option of removing, repairing and something else. By choosing the remove option the installer should remove all traces of your old RTW installation.

Ah, but sometimes the uninstaller thinks that it is uninstalled, but the registry thinks that it is installed. Therefore you can't install or uninstall.

Too true. Just thought it might be worth trying. It helped me when I had to remove RTW and BI before reinstalling EB 0.8 and the 0.81 patch.

Try removing Norton Antivirus from a laptop where it's installed by default. Now that's pain. You actually have to go to their homepage to download an installation removal tool.

Going through the Control Panel "Add/Remove Program" dosen't just dosen't work.

Hopefully either the setup method or the add/remove programs solves your problems K.
