Re: XP upgrade blocking issue: pcAnywhere 10.0

Why don't you tell us *specifically* exactly WHAT happens when you try
installing WinXP. What error messages do you get? etc, etc, etc

IOW: "insufficient data", as presented.

system.dat still have these strings even after using regedit to clean them
out.

So what? That isn't necessarily the problem here! Again, "insufficient
data".

Several other files on the machine also have these strings and I have
deleted what I felt safe deleting. Some appear to be system files. Thanks
