Did you remember to uninstall Palm Desktop 4.x (not 4.2) first? Also, when
uninstalling, if you get asked whether to remove a file or not (usually
occurs when shareable objects exist), always reply "No" or "No to all" if
that option exists. Also make sure that you reboot before attempting to
install the new version of Palm Desktop or else the Windows Registry would
cause confusion.
