Trying to install latest IDE on Windows XP.
Here's the error:
Well, it's not really an error, but when I click OK, the installer exits and that's it.
I have deleted Arduino166 directory but still have the problem.
Is there something in the registry making Arduino think there is a installed version there?
I have deleted Arduino15 from C:\Documents and Settings\owner\Local Settings\Application Data and still can't install.

You need to remove it from the add/remove programs dialog.
You can only have one instance of the IDE installed via the installer at a time. You can have any number of versions installed simultaneously using the .zip package.
@DrAzzy Thanks for the reply!
I decided to plunge into the registry and deleted everything that matched "arduino166"
That fixed the problem.
The Arduino installer should really fail a little bit more gracefully, or at least give an override option.
