13 tries & still no luck.

wow, ive been trying to install vb express beta 2 now for over a month, with no luck.  i have read every post related to installation problems, and still havent found any usefull information. 

heres my problem, 
I uninstalled beta1 according to the guidlines.
I installed beta2 , and now when ever i try to start the program, it errors out.
I have uninstalled, and re-installed beta about 13 times now, still with the same result. i have a sony viao, with a total of 240 gigs.
 vb6 ran fine, beta 1 ran fine ( with the exception of a few bugs)
 but beta 2 just wont run. 
any help would be greatly appreceated.

    You are going to have to post more information.

    What error is being displayed when 'it errors out'

    Hi,

    this may be because some beta 1 components are still in your system left. What I found out while testing vs 2005 betas and ctps is that reinstalling your os often is faster than looking for this files and regestry keys.

    Have you tried using the beta 1 clean up tool
