I always make the restore disks on a new laptop before doing anything to them. Doing a repair from those, I am not sure would get me anywhere. I had not thought of trying to install sp2 over it though. Might give it a shot when I get back. The worst that will happen is restoring again. ----- Original Message ----- From: Carl Houseman To: NT System Admin Issues Sent: Sunday, January 20, 2008 2:47 PM Subject: RE: Removing IE7 to install IE6
Repair install with with SP2 installation CD should do something about it. But haven't had your error nor tried this to get rid of it so YMMV.

IE 7 will not work with some pages that have to be accessed for the medical department. Has to be IE 6. Attempted to remove IE 7 through add/remove which seemed to work fine. I was expecting it to revert back to ver 6, but didin't. Tried installing 6 but got an error saying, could not install 6 because a newer version already exists. Attempted to reset the reg keys to show that IE 7 was not installed, and removed any updates that I could tell had anything to do with version 7. Still no luck. Still says a newer ver is installed. Then tried using the /q switch on the IE 6 setup. Seemed to run and reboot. That did nothing more than totally trash the system to a BSOD Stop error. Anyone know of a way to get rid of 7 completely so I can install 6.
