Dear Alan:
Thank you for your suggestion on wiping the disk and reloading the OS, which I imagine you might be suggesting because of your political feelings to Microsoft... which I don't think are wrong.
However, this would not be a practical solution for me in any way, and this installer claims on the PHP site to be Vista compatible, so I am hoping there is a much less destructive way of dealing with this issue.
Anyone else?
Many thanks.

How can I uninstall this and remove it from my system?
