  1. hey, thanks for the help, I ended up uninstalling the whole thing and reinstalling it with the original disk, and now the diagnostic cleared, so I guess it is all good. thanks for the tips!
  2. How does one roll back the version? In the link you referenced, it said that it isnt recommended to install a lower version unless it was completely uninstalled, but then it also says to not uninstall it because it can cause problems with the system.......

I can now no longer run
