I was using an AdsTech DVDXpressDX2 to convert our old family movies to DVD
and edit the video in Roxio with my old computer, Windows XP. I can't get
the beta Vista software from AdsTech to load because it says there is a
previous version of the software already on my computer. I have downloaded
a freeware registry cleaner and used it several times, as well as doing
advanced searches on all the key words connected with the AdsTech device and
deleting and uninstalling everything. Still get same error message from
Windows Installer that "Another version of this product is already
installed....."

Advice from AdsTech was to System Restore to a time before I had any AdsTech
on this new computer but have been trying to fix this problem for so long
that there are no restore points old enough to do that. That is the "final
word" from AdsTech support, they have no more suggestions.

Can anyone offer advice on getting the AdsTech software to load onto my
computer, or tell me if there is another device that I can buy to capture
the video from these vhs tapes and convert it to digital video for editing
on my computer.

Would really appreciate any responses.

Thanks,
Mike
