Re: reinstalling CA & thanks -- MIDRANGE-L

If you did not feel comfortable in the Regristry this tip worked for me:

REINSTALLING CLIENT ACCESS FOR WIN95/NT WITH SERVICE PACK -- A
SOLUTION WITHOUT MODIFYING YOUR REGISTRY
Carole Miner, IBM Client Access senior software engineer,
submitted a less risky way of reinstalling Client Access after you
have service packs installed. The following tip is in response to
the Weekly Tech Tip that ran in the February 18 issue of
NEWSWire/400:
If you delete the Client Access Windows 95/NT's folder after a
Service Pack has been installed, you can easily get Client Access
back to a usable state (or to a state where you can properly
uninstall it) by simply rerunning the setup.exe as described in
the following table. Following these steps will correct your
registry entries without needing to modify your registry entries.
Steps to recover Client Access:
For V3R1M1:
   1. Run setup as follows (making sure UPGRADE=YES is in all
   capital letters and contains no spaces): SETUP.EXE UPGRADE=YES
   2. Reinstall the service pack if Client Access is not going to
   be uninstalled.
For V3R1M2:
   1. Run setup as follows (making sure UPGRADE=YES is in all
   capital letters and contains no spaces): SETUP.EXE UPGRADE=YES
   2. Reinstall the service pack if Client Access is not going to
   be uninstalled.
For V3R1M3:
   1. Run setup as follows (UPGRADE=YES is not needed as the
   install figures it out correctly): SETUP.EXE
   2. Reinstall the service pack if Client Access is not going to
   be uninstalled.

   To all who replied thanks.
   WIN98 was on my mind and my fingers don't type what they should.
   I was able to fix my problem by doing a search for SF45545 in
registry and changing every occurrence to " ".
   Now I need to fix Blue Screen on shutdown :(.
