I'mtrying to upgrade a user who is running Windows 95B to IE 5.5. She was originally running IE4, but when I tried upgrading to 5.5, the upgrade bombed out. I had to upgrade her from 4.0 to 4.01 to 5 to 5.01. Now when I try to upgrade to 5.5, the upgrade goes smooth until the end. I get a non-descriptive error message stating that setup did not complete and to reboot and rerun setup. Of course I do this and of course it doesn't work. Does anyone have any ideas? I'm lost!

I had this problem on a box where someone had installed a beta. I finally fixed it by reinstalling the OS, having it walk on any newer files. I then installed 4.01 from a CD, then bumped to 5.5. Don't forget the Y2K patches.

Good luck.
