I installed SP2 on my Windows XP Home Edition. Since doing so, whenever I
click on a icon to start some program, a Windows installer window opens that
says it is trying to install Money 2002. It eventually asks me for the CD.
Since Money 2002 was working fine (and I can't find a CD it likes (it came
pre installed on my Gateway and I can not locate a CD)) I cancel the install,
but it immediately restarts. If I continually click cancel, I can sometimes
have Money 2002 to start successfully, but the installer keeps trying to run.
I can use the Money 2002 program, but after a while the installer says it
was unsuccessful, and the Money 2002 program ends.
I tried the System restore (several times, backing up to a week ago. THe
SP2 install is no longer on the machine but this installer behavior remains.
I went to control panel, ....scheduled tasks but the only things there are
the virus scanner, pop up blocker and other things I want.
Since this problem seems to occur when I click on a startup icon, I am
thinking that something has been set to automatically start "before" a
program starts.
Any help will be much appreciated.
BTW, I downloaded a copy of Money 20904, trial, and it seems to work. I am
guessing that I will need to reapply SP2 and then buy Money 2004 and
uninstall Money 2002. ANy thoughts on this will also be appreciated.
Thanks.
