error 1606

[dman]

I am working on a Dell that was upgraded from Window's ME
to XP Pro. I can not uninstall anything because I get
error 1606. I have done the regedit, fix, still nothing.
Any ideas for a work around? Or another fix? Reformating
is out of the question.
Please reply to (e-mail address removed)
Thanks for any help I can get!

Too bad "reformatting is out of the question". It is the best way to go
when upgrading from ME.
