Hi All -

First time poster. Happy Slimp3/Squeezebox user since 2003. Best things in
life - wife, kids, Squeezeboxes (not necessarily in that order). Have turned
on a bunch of friends over the years and that is the occasion of this post.

Trying to set-up a friend with a new Classic but can't get the server
software installed on their desktop no matter what I try (v7.4.1, but same
results with v7.3.1). The error is always "FATAL: There is already another
copy of the Squeezebox Server running on this machine" (even the 1st attempt
at installing when there couldn't possibly have been any prior versions).
Searched the forums and saw a few NAS related entries during a debug phase
but nothing else really. One of the posts had suggested that the problem is
really related to one of the Slim ports being in use by something else so
that the install thinks the server is already installed but can't figure
anything out. The machine is a Dell Vostro 200 with XP SP3. Tried
the expected steps: uninstalled ZoneAlarm; shutdown the AV software,
CCleaner purge and registry clean, and utilize Revo Uninstaller for the
uninstalls. After working for hours at my friend's house I temporarily
installed the server software (in minutes, as expected) on her laptop
without issue (different machine obviously but her same network). Brought
her desktop to my house but exact same results.

I've put up all pertinent screenshots (firewall, control panel, etc. and the
slim logs at this address - http://www.scurvydog.us/slimproblem/index.htm

Sure could use your help. Thanks -
Hutch
