BluespaceNE and XP SP2

nspatial — Tue, 14 Sep 2004 19:04:11 GMT

Installed XP SP2 on my VAIO PCG-Z1XSP. After the fourth complete reinstall it has become stable. However, I'm now having a problem trying to upgrade Bluespace to the latest version.

The first step is to deinstall the existing version. With SP2 installed the removal process just hangs - I mean *really* hangs. The only workaround I've found so far is to remove SP2, remove Bluespace then reinstall SP2. Unfortunately, that leaves the XP installation unstable.

I really don't want to have to reinstall everything yet again unless I absolutely have to. Anyone got any ideas or at least experienced the same issue? I would have tried contacting support but I have never seen a support site so badly put together - probably quite deliberate by Sony

Rob,

With SP2 Bluespace is a bit redundant as Windows XP can do handle bluetooth natively within the OS.

Hi,

I'm aware of that (now) but how do I uninstall BS after SP2 has been installed?

Sorry, I must have misread your post.
Is there no uninstall in Control Panel > Add/Remove Software?
