Installing Visual Studio Beta 2 Problem

Question

I have been trying to install my evaluation copy for a week with no success. I deleted the beta 1 version following the uninstall procedure with no problem. But when I put the CD in to install I get the following:

Setup has detected  the previous versions of the products listed currently installed. Uninstall these applications before continuing ...

      -


Since all I get is the dash I have know idea what it wants me to uninstall.

Can anyone help me.

The latest uninstall directions are here: http://lab.msdn.microsoft.com/vs2005/get/vsbeta2installissues/default.aspx

I would suggest running the uninstall tool to see if it can clean up something that is not showing up in the Add/Remove Programs list.

http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=47065 is the link on above page to the tool.

After doing this, can you update this post to see if that helped?
