error A reboot is required in order for boinc to run properly

I tried to install the 6228 verson of boinc on a vista home with sp1, as a service and I kept getting this error message:

A reboot is required in order for boinc to run properly please reboot your computer and try again

but no matter how many times you reboot the same error would pop up

but boinc does install just find not as a service

Re: error A reboot is required in order for boinc to run properly

My guess is you have a file named "rebootpending.txt" lying around. Delete it.
