Trying to install Vista as an upgrade over WinXP Pro I was told in an error
message that Alcohol 120% (an ISO type utility program) had to be
uninstalled, along with Nero 6. OK did that, uninstalled OK according to
Win XP.
But the Vista installer still says I must uninstall Alcohol 120%.

I have used regedit to remove every reference in the registry that I can
find to "Alcohol" but still the Vasta installer says I have to remove
Alcohol 120% before I can do an upgrade.

I am trying out the Vista install on a cloned copy of my spare Win XP
computer on a spare hard drive, to iron out the bugs, so it doesn't matter a
lot if something goes wrong.

But this Alcohol 120% thing is driving me to DRINK, seriously, I have
uninstalled it and removed every reference I can find, what can I do to get
around it please.

Any ideas welcomed thanks.

goto google.com

type in:
"uninstall Alcohol 120%"
