Hi all,

I started this thread for anyone who wants to come here for lite discussion, jokes, and just general discussion and fun.

Everyone is welcome!

I was thinking that maybe it would be helpful to keep the original thread to a bit more of a serious discussion of the clues and answers.

This would make the original thread more useful to those seeking serious information and clues without having to read through hundreds of extraneous messages.

So, I hope it catches on !

So pop a beer and pull up a chair and relax !

Try downloading the old version here http://www.filehippo.com/download...s_32/2327/ and run the installer, it may give you a repair option or the ability to uninstall.
I tried downloading the version from the link you gave me - same message ...contains an invalid character................UGH!

Thank you though!

That ones a little tricky. If any one does it you have to join the Nvidia community and register your product and if you win you have to take a picture of yourself with your Nvidia GeForce. You can try registering but Im not sure if you need the serial or what I cant remember when I registered mine

try this

Quote :
For Windows 2000 or Windows XP:
1. On the Start menu, click Run.
2. In the "Open" field dialog box, enter the following command and click OK:
regsvr32 vbscript.dll
3. A message should appear stating that the "DllRegisterServer in vbscript.dll succeeded."
4. Click OK and try installing iTunes or QuickTime again.
You might reboot before you try installing or uninstalling again.

Quote from talonts :
The first error about the Program Files path shouldn't normally be possible, as the old iTunes should only use valid characters, something is definitely corrupt.

As radar noted, try downloading and running the same version you have, it might have a Repair or Uninstall option. You might have to completely Install it, then see if you can Uninstall.

It might also help to install the latest JRE - http://www.oracle.com/technetwork...index.html - download the Update 23 JRE, NOT the JDK, only developers really need the full JDK, unless a program you run specifically requires it.

If neither works, you can run Regedit and use Find to look for folders with "iTunes" or "Quicktime" in them, and delete them, but you really shouldn't do that unless you know what you are doing, and ALWAYS back up the entire Registry before attempting any edits. And I can help with that once I install it on one of my older systems, but it might be later in the week before I can get to that.
This may be a stupid question, but on the JRE download it's asking what platform I want: Linux, Linus x64, Solaris SPARC, Solaris x64, Solaris x86, Windows, Windows x64. Which one should I use, please?

Ok, those of you that were on here late last night know that I was a busy bee listing a bunch of electronics sweeps (iPhones, iPads, laptops, desktops, HDTVs, sound systems, etc).

I brought a few over here last night. There are way too many now to do that, so if you want to check out some, either go to the Contest & Sweepstakes Forum and look for my posts (kinda' hog almost 2 pages!!) or go here (just the ones I posted)

https://slickdeals.net/forums/sdsearch.php?mode=forum&showposts=0&starteronly=1&exactname=1&searchuserid=1144648

Sure would be nice if someone here would win at least one of them! nod

you've done so much work on these thanks and I hope the veterans have a hissy fit

Groupwave 3 Groupwave cheers Groupwave for mix3
