I feel your pain.

I spent the best part of a day fiddling with this trying to do a clean
install. Deleted all the IBM folders, anything in the registry that
looked vaguely IBM, temp files, searched for "plug-ins", Googled for the
error message. I never did find it and ended up getting the machine
re-imaged.

Good luck!

I found out the problem look for

c:\windows\vpd.properties

do a google on vpd.properties

It contain all the commerce service install info.

If the uninstallers does a poor job and doesn't remove the info from
this file your screw big time.

On to next problem

Thank you your input
