Hi autotech, thanks for your reply.
I'm on xp sp3 32bit
Deleting the old instaltion does not work. I've tried from its own delete option and also from windows add/remove programs. When trying either of these options I briefly see a small progress bar appear but it dissapears in an instant.
In desperation I deleted the folder manualy but I suspect there are dll's still hooked up in the windows folder because the new files will not install.
I have two instalations of xp so I booted to the other and had already tried your suggestion of downloading the files and running from the desktop.
The easy saver does uninstall but its the easy tune 6 that will not. The official download site says I MUST update easytune if I want to use the new energy saver.
Ive managed to install the new energy saver with the old easytune but there are problems. The energy saver does not turn off and it crashes if i try to close it down.
I'm now stuck with two windows installations that are running at 800mgz
Its a shame because the energy saver was previously knocking power consumption down to just 15 watts and cpu was running at 33'c when idling. I only went for the updates because energysaver didnt always switch off. I occasionaly do movie editing and so need the cpu to run at 3200 when asked to do so.
Do you know if gigabyte have a tool that can strip out the remnants of these programs?
if not I'll have to reinstall (sigh) windows.
