thing is with this problem, when using add/remove, it can't find the necessary file to do the uninstall...."isu" is just gone. that's why ertai is stuck.

this has happened to me about 5 times, with all the bg games and with iwd, post- and pre-how. in my case, uninstalling iwd before how messed everything up royally. but on a whim, later i unistalled how and i found, except for a few reg keys, it did remove both from my game.

anyway, ertai, i had to go thru and manually search for all the files and dump them. then go thru the registry, doing the same thing. only then, could i get an active install button again.

sorry ertai! but i think it's time to hit regedit.

hi dragonascending! that's a great tip. unfortunately for my homebuilt, that wasn't the problem. altho, we had gateways at work, and, that was indeed the source of headaches. took our tech guy a week to figger it out, too. *LOL*

V***V
