Clean Install of Vista Home Premium

[JamesJ]

I'm having problems with some 3rd party software and have gone as far as
reinstalling Vista Home Premium.
I did a clean install and have a question:
Does a clean install completely replace the registry? If so does
anything linger from the old registry lingers into the new one?

Thanks much,
James

If you have formatted the HD and then did a NEW install.......nothing should
be left from the old.
If you simply installed over the old installation there will be old stuff
left in the registry
