Maybe it's because of a failed uninstallation of an older version of BOINC? You may try to follow the advice from here.
(To edit Registry: click Start --> click Run --> type regedit --> click OK) |

This issue may occur if you have reinstalled BOINC on a new drive after you moved or removed the drive in which BOINC was originally installed. It can also mean you have a corrupted Windows installation.
Either way, I suggest you use the Windows Installer CleanUp Utility: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290301 to remove the old BOINC version before trying again. |
