Under Windows Vista 32, you need PowerDVD Ultra 7.3 version 2911 to play recent releases, such as, Pirates1 and Pirates2.
According to my experience, I do not recommend upgrading from PowerDVD Ultra versions 2905b and 2905n using the file 'CyberLink.2911_EVR_Logo_DVD070424-02.exe'.
If you have a previous installation of 2905, uninstall it first using these procedures:
1. Uninstall the oldest PowerDVD Ultra build.
2. Delete the following folder :
C:\Program Files\InstallShield Installation Information\{6811xxx-xxx}
Please note that this directory is a hidden directory. So, first select 'Show hidden files and folder' option from 'Folder option' and then delete that folder.
For that follow the steps :-
Open 'Control Panel' --> open 'Folder Options' --> click 'View' tab --> select 'Show hidden files and folder' --> click 'OK'.
Now delete the following folder :
C:\Program Files\InstallShield Installation Information\{6811xxx-xxx}
Also delete the file 'IsProBE.tlb' from folder C:\Program Files\Common Files\InstallShield\Professional\RunTime\
Edited and inserted 2007/05/29: I have since found out that an additional step should be performed. Run the Windows Cleanup Tool found at http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290301 and remove the PowerDVD install entry before installing the 2911 version.
After uninstalling 2905, or if you are performing an install from scratch, install the full version file 'CyberLink.2911_EVR_Logo_DVD070424-01.exe'.
