I uninstalled Calibre 0.6.29 - a clean uninstall as far as I can tell - in order to install 6.31 (sometimes the install seems to work better when I uninstall first; I do this periodically, about every fifth version or so), but now Calibre will not install at all. It gets to the end of "copying files" and then begins rolling back; then I get an error message that Calibre was unable to finish installation, no further explanation. I tried installing 6.31, 6.30, 6.29 - none of the versions will install, despite the fact that I've had Calibre successfully installed for a long time now and have never had a problem with installation or operation.

This is making me very unhappy, needless to say. Any suggestions? I'm on Windows XP.
