I'm thinking that the second step (shown in clip B.gif) is wrong.

What I originally had was ' install this OR that, depending upon the Windows
version.
But, on reflection, for the patch to work, the 'vista' version must *always*
be installed.

Then, the conditional install is (pseudo-code):
If windows version < Vista then
install 'normal' version (as patch)

...which, as I understand it, 'undoes' the manifest addition from the vista
version by applying the patch.


Ok.. right *this* time? <g>
