Re: reinstallation - help required

Are you using the WCG recommended version of BOINC?
http://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/reg/ms/viewDownloadAgain.do

What sort of error are you getting?

Also on Vista it is best not to install this version to "Program Files" due to security problems, I'd use c:\BOINC.
