hi,

i just installed a win2k on a bew harddrive. when i try to install my cd burner program, winoncd, suddenly the window installer crashed. then i try to run the installation program again, i keep on getting error 1500(the error that tells me there were previous installation running, and i can't run installation again unless the previous incompleted installation is completed). i tried to reboot my computer then run the installation program again, but i'm getting the same error message. i was wondering where does window installer keep information on the installing programs? i want to delete all the incomplete installation record then run a new installation again.. thx!

Try deleting all the files from C:\WINNT\Temp directory to see if that helps.
