Can't install update.. previous intallation requires reboot
I am getting this message when trying to install an ie6
critical update even after a full reboot. I assume there is an entry in the registry telling windows to complete a previous install (unknown). Does anyone know where to find it, or how to cure this problem? |

Look for a file in the Windows folder named wininit.ini....if found, re-name it to
wininit.bak or wininit.old Be sure you only re-name the .ini file if found, not any other found file named wininit with a different extension. -- Glen Ventura, MS MVP W95/98 Systems http://dts-l.org/goodpost.htm "Ariel" wrote in message ...
