I Just love Norton & windows

After reading the post regarding the mapsource look, I upgraded the version on my work computer:
total time needed: 10 minutes for a total success,
and a very happy customer :)

But, since I don't usually play with my toy (edge 705) at work, I
decided to upgrade mapsource on my home computer.

2 weeks ago, I turned my back on NORTON 360 (uninstall),
after that, MS office would not work anymore "I was getting invalid installation , could not locate data1.msi"
I managed to fix the issue true regedit/re-install with the original office 2000
CD that I took 2 hours to locate.
After that, I though ok, everything is fine, until yesterday....

Yesterday,
I got the same issue while trying to upgrade Mapsource
now looking for "MAIN.msi"

I re-installed from my city navigator DVD, tried many suggestions on various forum, but always get "MAIN.msi" is not a valid installation file.
Could not uninstall mapsource.

I Just love Norton & windows

I think I will re-format & re-install my PC....
  • Well 6 hours later, after a complete PC re-install,
    and the 37 windows updates installation, I was able to get
    the latest an greatest mapsource up and running,
    plus I get a faster PC...

    too bad I takes so much time to re-install everyting,
    I would do it more often if this was not the case...
