Well, this morning I fired it up and everything installed as advertised. I can’t say definitively where the problem was but cleaning the registry, reinstall of a ‘fresh’ U1 and a long reboot must have done the trick. Morale of the story - if deleting the program is necessary, do it as prescribed. Thank you Gents for all your help!

RE: Reinstalling 4.33U1
I dragged the setup folder out of the zip file and onto the desktop.

Yes, just downloaded clean U1 from Torrent and attempted to install just that one. Same result - nothing.

RE: Reinstalling 4.33U1
I’m at a loss. I even tried running the Clean_Public_BMS_4.33 U1 zip from your post last year.

RE: Reinstalling 4.33U1
No joy. Found the BMS file and deleted, restarted computer then downloaded clean U1 and tried to install. Same result - it allows me to Accept license agreement then nothing happens. I also noticed in the registry the Microprose Falcon 4.0 folder. Would that also need to be deleted?

RE: Reinstalling 4.33U1
Nope. I must confess, I had 4.33U1 installed and it worked fine. Then I tried to add the incremental updates and somehow I screwed it up so I deleted all folders. I now know this is NOT the proper way to remove. I’m sure this mistake has got to have something to do with the problem.

The setup wizard starts up but after I click Accept to the license agreement, nothing happens.

RE: Reinstalling 4.33U1
Ok. I’ll try that. It appears Shadow has his Setup file separate from the incrementals.
