It seems that the windows 2000 install shield can become....problematic.
On this computer, i can no longer install power DVD, or anything else that requires the install shield. It "prepares" to "guide" me through the process, and gets an error.
0x80040706 Object Reference Not Set
Googleing it came up with several hits, saying that this and that should fix it...
Ive tried them all, and even repaired and then reinstalled windows (keeping settings)
I think it comes down to the service packs, is there an easy way to uninstall all of them, so that i cna redo windows update selectively?
Anything that comes with its own installer works fine. (microsoft 2000 office, winamp, ect)
