Error 103

I have tried installing the program from a disc and
downloading from the MS website.

Each time I try to launch the program I get this error
103 message with instructions to try uninstalling and
reinstalling the latest & greatest version.

I suspect I have a software incompatibility problem. I
have successfully installed the program on my laptop, but
cannot seem to get it to work on my desktop.

Any help would be appreciated.

Describe your experience--you could forward what you've posted here.

I'm not sure if he is still looking for more information, or how quickly you

Thanks, Bill. I did send him an e-mail this afternoon
but I was unable to find the errors.log file he needed.
I hope he can still help me because I really want to be
able to use this program on my desktop.
