Sorry to revive this old thread, but I was googling for advise on my problem, and found this thread.
I downloaded BMS 4.32 with U1-U6 integrated. Had no previous Falcon installation present, not since my last
system reinstall. Falcon 4.0 CD in drive, is recognized and accessible. I unzip and then click the BMS installer exe, and then get the original message the first poster has quoted.
Cleaning the registry, did not help. And why should it? There was no previous Falcon or BMS installation anyway. Checking that registry adress manually ensured me that indeed there is no folder "Benchmarksims". Not there and not anywhere else in the registry.
I searched and found an old CD with an earlier save of the 4.32, without any updates. I tried it back then,m but it was an older system anbd did not run nice then. I tried with it: and got the same error.
Windows 7, installing in administrator mode. Or better: not installing.
Any advise?
