The system that Check Service Level on my PC connects to updated from V5R1 to V5R2. Next time the check ran I clicked to update to V5R2. This failed part way and wouldn't restart through Check Service Level, so I ran the SETUP.EXE from \\myiseries.mycompany.com\qibm\ProdData\Access\Windows\Install\Image That failed again part way through, so I had to start it again. When I try to select the install method (Basic, PC5250, Custom, All) I got the following message: The following components cannot be installed. Reason: IBM Personal Communications already installed 5250 Display and Printer Emulator Went ahead and upgraded, all appeaed to be OK except that trying to open PC5250 SSL sessions would crash on my W2K Pro (Service Pack 3) PC with one of those really useful messages: PCSCM.EXE - Application Error The instruction at "0x74c1c3b3" referenced memory at "0x00000000". The memory could not be "read". So I uninstalled ALL of Client Access (iSeries Access), rebooted, and tried again. Still get: The following components cannot be installed. Reason: IBM Personal Communications already installed 5250 Display and Printer Emulator Now there's no mention of PCOMM or Client Access in Add/Remove Programs or anywhere else. I've deleted any Client Access stuff I could see in places like Program Files/IBM/Client Access and in Documents and Settings/All Users. I've gone through the Registry and blown away all references I could see to Personal Communications, PCOMM, Client Access, PC5250, rebooted, and tried again. STILL get the: The following components cannot be installed. Reason: IBM Personal Communications already installed 5250 Display and Printer Emulator when running SETUP.EXE to reinstall iSeries Access. Does ANYONE have a clue just WHAT this install program is checking that causes it to tell me I have IBM Personal Communications installed ? It has NEVER been installed on this PC - only the PC5250 code that came with previous versions of Client Access. ...Neil
