Well, FINALLY got rid of NewDot.net......and discovered the PhotoShop
problem was resolved (I think) by inserting the HP printer software
disk....guess I removed one of the HP files during my cleaning process.
I wonder if your Installer is looking for OLDER versions of Quickbooks and
Phillips programs, rather than what you're loading in your CD drive.
