I upgraded to IE8beta. I also installed SP3. Since then I've been getting the following error when attempting to start IE8beta: --------------- iexplore.exe - Application Error The instruction at "0x5a913420" referenced memory at "0x5a913420". The memory could not be "written". Click on OK to terminate the program Click on CANCEL to debug the program ---------------- When I try to uninstall IE8BETA I get a message saying it cannot be uninstalled. When I try to install IE7 over the top I get told that I can't install it since there is a later version already installed. Firefox works okay. However I tried the new Google Chrome to see if it works and it gives the exact same error apart from the iexplore.exe is chrome.exe. I'd be glad of any help with this problem. Regards Tom |

Hi, If SP3 was installed after IE8 beta, you will have to remove SP3 before uninstalling IE8. See: IEBlog- IE and Windows XP Service Pack 3 http://blogs.msdn.com/ie/archive/2008/05/05/ie-and-xpsp3.aspx Before you uninstall either SP3 or IE8, a third-party program is probably causing the error. Start IE7 without add-ons from: Right-click the IE icon on the desktop. Choose Start without add-ons. or Programs> Accessories> System tools> Internet Explorer (no add-ons) If the problem goes away, you have an incompatible browser add-on installed. See: http://www.enhanceie.com/ie/troubleshoot.asp for troubleshooting information. More at: IEBlog Troubleshooting and Internet Explorer�s (No Add-ons) Mode: http://blogs.msdn.com/ie/archive/2006/07/25/678113.aspx - - - The troublesome program may not be a browser add-on. See: 936214- How to troubleshoot compatibility problems that affect IE7 in Windows Vista: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/936214 (Also applies to XP) Hope this helps, Don [MS MVP- IE] "Tom Stuart" <tom@uniting.com.au> wrote in message news:uH8VrshDJHA.3392@TK2MSFTNGP03.phx.gbl... > I upgraded to IE8beta.
