Hi Everyone,
I need a little help. I installed the new patch the other day for VB slow
performance and since then I stated having more problems, like the IDE
compiler locking up. Anyways, today every form I tried to open would not open
without an error, and it would not show the form. So I decided to reinstall
VS 2005. When I run the Repair install on my machine It could not find the
main setup after getting the Maintenance Mode screen. Then I got this error:
Setup is looking for file WindowsInstalle r-KB893803-v2-x86.exe. Please
insert MS VS 2005 Professional Edition - ENU disk 1.
I found the file on the cd, so I pointed it to that dir on the install cd.
When I select OK to continue, I get the following error:
The chosen path is invalid. Choose OK to select a different folder.
What is happening, I've never seen an install from microsoft act this way.
Can anyone please help. Thanks for any info.

Hi Ken,
Thanks for the reply. I'll check out the article. I ended up running a clean
install. Part of my problem was that I tried to wrap a Namespace around the
form class and that seemed to have caused the problem with the form. Can't we
use a namespace like that, or is that a bug. Thanks again for the reply.
