RobbLL.

I belive the link I gave you above installs C++ 2008 v. 9.0.30729.4148. You need to look for Windows update to install C++ 2008 v. 9.0.30729.6161. See the screenshot in reply # 7.

Anyways I would run aswclear.exe in safe mode for Avast! 6 and then Avast! 7 just in case any registry key was left behind by the first two fail attents to install Avast! when you did not have Visual C++ 2008.

A few more points to consider:

Any other old and forgotten AV ?
Run CHKDSK.

Yes, I did exactly what you asked...nothing changed, still won't install...I'm sure it is my computer and it would probably take a complete reinstall of XP to fix things. I'm just tired of M$FT junk which is why I have gone to Mac. I'll wait to see if anyone else has a suggestion and I thank you for trying so diligently.

I beleive that you are right and it is something about your system, maybe a driver for one of your programmes or a corrupt file somewhere within XP

Yep, I would have to agree...and I'm not surprised considering the source of the code from M$FT. Nothing surprises me with that outfit anymore. Thanks for trying!
