IntelliPoint 4.0 Software---Error trying to install: "Windows Installer:1: 2803 2: SetupError 3: 4: 5: 6:"


Somebody, I need serious help!

I have the latest Intellimouse Explorer, and I previously had version 4.0 of the Intellimouse Explorer software.

After monkeying around a bit, I decided to reinstall the software...but accidently reinstalled version 3.2.

Since I couldn't find the 4.0 software, I decided to download it on the internet. I went for version 4.1

It installed just fine, but the software did not detect my mouse as a IntelliMouse Explorer...but rather some other dinky mouse.

Somethings transpired between then and now...and I can't remember all what I did.

But now I can't install or remove IntellPoint 4.0. Everytime I go in the "Add Remove Programs", it sends me that same "Windows Installer: 1: 2803 2: SetupError 2: 4: 5: 6:" error.

I try installing the version 4.1 from the internet. Same Error!

I try installing it from the 4.0 CD. Same Error!

Not only that, EVERYTIME I CLICK OK ON THE ERROR, IT RESTARTS MY COMPUTER!

RESTART, RESTART, RESTART, RESTART

I'm absolutely stuck!


I've done a ton of research on this subject, and found numerous complaints similar to this issue. Some people talk about using some "dialog editor" and "rebuilding the project" such as here: http://www.installsite.org/forum1/cgi-bin/ikonboard/topic.cgi?forum=17&topic=1

Other people such as here have this same problem but do not get answers:
http://www.computing.net/beos/wwwboard/forum/236.html

But this is such in-depth stuff, that I have no clue where to start. Does somebody have a clue how to resolve this specific error message with Windows Installer?

My OS is Win98 SE

Thanx in advance.

Anybody?


I challenge anyone to figure out a problem as technical as this.

Betcha any money you can't! 😛
