<div>
The quick fix is to DELTREE windows and do a complete install.<br />
<br />
But if many hours of data and windows work is needed, i'd say that the cause of your problem was when a program uninstalled it took registry shared references with it.<br />
Reinstalling windows over windows won't fix it because the install uses the current registry, backup registry or system.1st file as a basis for instalation.<br />
<br />
Maybe someone else could point you to the exact file references to edit but atleast i gave you the quick fix.<br />
<br />
goodluck<br />

Any Ideas?<br />
