installation unknown error

[Tommer]

I have tried several times to install Visual Basic 2005 Express. Every single time I get an 'unknown error' during installation. When the messagebox appears, and I click OK, the setup continues. But eventually, I can't open Visual Basic. It keeps saying: 'Unknown error'...

I hope someone can help me..

Do you have a previous beta version still installed or unsuccessfully removed?

I have found the problem on another site. Apparantly, it was the Stardock program that caused the problem! You know, the program that lets you customize every feature of Windows: icons, desktop, some fish on your desktop etc.

I uninstalled that program and my visual basic.net worked again! The people from Stardock should test their programs before they release it. It's still a mystery why the error happened, but it's solved.

Thanks for the advice, though..
