      What do you do if you have installed over the old several times and you have already did the same with the new?
      Do you know where the old parts are located in the registry? (I usually use CCleaner to take care of that problem)

      But, I have found it is better to do a clean install, (completely remove the old version, from the add/remove programs, hard drive, and registry, BEFORE you add the latest version.)

      The old version leaves a lot of remains in the registry, even after removing.
