VUESCAN INSTALL PROBLEM SINCE version 76.73

HELLO GROUP...

I've been using VUESCAN for about 3 years with much success until the
most recent versions..

I've been having this installation problem since version .73 and
getting the following messages:

1.0 "Vuescan.dat not found"

2.0 "make sure .dat is on the same drive"..

3.0 "don't use the shortcut"

I cannot get VUESCAN to install 76.75 ..I was using a shortcut and
getting the above notices, and now I'm trying to find the program
itself to open vuescan from there, and it's nowhere to be found..I'm
"LOST"....
Any advice would be appreciated..
BTW, I'm on a PC w/ W2K and a GIG of RAM..

TIA,

Eddie Wiseman

Try deleting the c:\vuescan folder before installing VueScan.
