Execute "isetup.exe" to install complete install the tools then restart

________________________________________________________________
I'm assuming you must delete entries in various other places such as the Windows Explorer C driver/ Start>control Panel>System>Hardware>device mangager. and delete there.  I had trouble deleting the folder from "regedit".  IT said the files were beingl used by other programs.   I've been having problems reinstalling Amigamerlin 2.5 SE for the last two days since my brightness went haywire after using 3dAnalyzer to start Hitman 2. "What a mess"..

I don't have had any kind of problem deleting the 3dfxvs folder and I have done this many times, every time I want to install new driver.
Be sure don't have open application that use D3D .

The istruction to correctly install the driver working for me and for many other user !!! This is the first bug report in this way.

1º Uninstall the Dirvers that you have.  
 
2º Restart  
 
3º Execute Regedit and it Erases "3dfxvs" that is in "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services \ ", if it doesn't leave you you see erasing the subfolders and the keys one for one until arriving to the one to "3dfxvs", ATTENTION makes it carefully!  
 
4º once erased it restarts again and the Driver installs, if it gives you some error message you omit it, it restarts and you install it again.  
 
5º Everything should work you perfectly.
