    A new install of the 'refresh' package.
    No I don't use MP for the TV
    Advanced install
    Use the install button at the top to get C++ install
    Next
    Finish

    MP itself not installed!

    Had to do the 'one button' install to get it on!!!

    :oops:

    sorry, but your Thead topic and the description is confusing me :confused:

    "New install (removed old one)"

    what happened exactly? was old version removed now, or not?:confused:

    please tell me step by step:
    1. was MP allready installed
    2. if yes which version?
    3. when you were in the "install" screen of the deploytool, was "MediaPortal 1.0RC1" displayed green = allready installed ?

    :D

    Same problem here

    I uninstalled the old version deleted the empty folder start the deploy tool
    all it shows in green regarding mp/tv server installation is

    very old MP/Tv engine installation - entfernt - keine Aktion

    then it creates an empty team media portal folder in the installaton folder- thats all.

    strange thing about unistalation was that after uninstall media portal icons still were in start menue.
    (and yes i really used media portal uninstall and did not simpy delete the files)

    no it does not.

    very old MP/Tv engine installation - entfernt - keine Aktion

    ^this means that no VERY old version of MP/TV-Server has been found. thats why -> "NO ACTION".
    the translation is a bit wrong. because instead of "enfternt/uninstalled" it should say "not found".

    only if MP 0.2.2.0 or earlier, or a very old TV-Server build which used MSI are found, something will happen there.

    ähm did say in post be4 but once again

    I used the uninstaller and removed V0.2.3.0 (there was never any version < V0.2.3.0 installed - clean new system)
    then i tried to install the new version- i get 3 lines green text of which the only one refering to media portal
    is the one i posted above.
    The inStaller then creates an empty folder Team Mediaportal in destination and thats all.

    :lol:
    Ok to clarify (hopefuly!)

    I uninstalled the old MP version (it was upto the last SVN revision for 0.2.3.0 RC3 before they were locked) by using the uninstall option within start -> Mediaportal then manualy remved the MP directories
    I then Dl'd the MP RC1 Refresh version and ran it
    Chose the 'I don't use MP for TV' option
    then chose the 'Advanced' install option (I want MP on the D: drive not C: )
    MP told me i needed the C++ package - so I clilcked the 'install' button at the top right.
    MP Dl'd and instaled the C++ package then stopped
    Clicking next took me to the congratulations page with NO MP installed!
    As stated, just an empty MP directory.

    I then chose the 'one click' install - that worked :) But instaled to the c: drive
    I uninstalled using the 'everything' option and went for the download only option - then installed the psckage(s) manually.
    MP now ready for testing :)

    Phew!!

    so you:
    1. uninstalled 0.2.3.0 (hopefully rebooted the PC too?)
    2. then started 1.0Rc1 setup
    3. then selected..... what?
