Have you made a copy of the registry key, stored it somewhere, and blown the
original away?

Subject: Completely Removing Winvnc
I need to have winvnc running on a machine here but due to a previous
corrupt install I cannot start the winvnc service.
When I attempt to configure the service, (put on the password so it can
actually be used). I get the following: "No existing instance of WinVNC
could be contacted"
WinVNC service is running just like every other machine where this works.
I think its caused by the following registry key, left over from a failed
install.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Enum\Root\LEGACY_WINVNC\0000
I have tried everything I can thing of, and as far as I know the Enum\Root
section is dynamic, and is built from somewhere else. But I cant figure out
where this information is built from.
If I cant figure out how to get vnc installed soon, I am going to have to
reformat the hard drive. Ugh I hate the thought of killing windows because
vnc wont install.
Thanks in advance.
