43782	2002-04-14 10:06:00	Hi I recently reinstalled Me on my system to fix a number of other problems. This reinstall changed by version of IE back to 5.5 (but it left OE at ver6... No problem I thought - I will just reinstall IE. However when I do a reinstall from the PC World CD it simply gets to 2%, shoots up to 99% then comes up with a message that says there was a problem and I need to reinstall. No luck though:-( I have tried stopping everything running but still no luck. Thanks in advance for any ideas or help.	Guest (0)

I'd also copy the setup to your PC first, provide u have 60megs extra after installation, but that might help in some un-known way? *Jojo*	Guest (0)

Next time you install try making sure you are connected to the net first as this seems to help. If the installation fails again just keep trying till it takes. From memory it took me about 6 attempts before IE6 installed on my machine.	Guest (0)
