We had the same problem and took that error - "Files are in use" - and entered it in the search parameters on the IBM site. There is one reference out there that explains exactly what to do.

I an getting the error message IBM Websphere MQ files are in use. Stop activity and retry. (AMQ4757) According to the Task Manager, there are no processes running with the 'amq' prefix, other than 'amqicsdn.exe' - this is the CSD installer itself. I have already stopped 'MQSeries Services'; there are no MQ icons in the system tray. Does anyone have any ideas for me? I just successfully completed an MQ 5.2 to 5.3 upgrade followed by a CSD09 installation, so I know my CDs are okay. I can't figure out what applications would be running that might be keeping some of the MQ files open. Could there be a flag file of some sort that might be incorrectly present? Thanks for all help.
