It sounds like when you are trying to install MS it is finding an
existing but unfortunately corrupt version. Unless somebody has a
very clever recovery technique this means that you have unfortunately
probably lost any custom formulas, explorations, etc. However,
that's not the end of the world so if I were you I would try to
not worry too much and get a fresh installation working asap.
My suggestion would be to try the following even though some of it
might be redundant:
1. Go to control panel/add remove software and delete any installed
MS applications you can find. Don't worry if you don't find
anything and skip this stage.
2. Go to windows explorer, right click on my computer and select
Properties. Go to the system restore tab and check the box
marked `turn off system restore'.
3. Restart in safe mode by switching it off, wait 10 seconds, switch
back on, then hit F8 furiously until a menu appears offering you the
option to restart in `safe mode'. Select that.
4. Start Windows Explorer and Delete the following directories:
c: \Program files\common files\equis
c: \Program files\ equis
5. Empty the recycle bin
6. Restart normally and reverse step 2.
7. Mumble brief prayer
8. Reinstall Metastock
Good luck.
