Me too.  I initially DID have problems with MDAC 2.5, when I first installed
it.  I wound up using the component checker from Microsoft to uninstall it

(
see my article in Fusion Authority entitled
"What to Do When You're Having Trouble with an MDAC Installation"
http://www.fusionauthority.com/alert/index.cfm?alertid=21
)

My guess is that your installation might not have gone well.  Although it
isn't made clear in the install instructions, you really need to shut down
all non-essential services on the server before installing an MDAC.  As a
precaution, I would also run the component checker after the installation
just to make sure the right files made it in.

Note: component checker always seems to come up with a few "false positives"
for mismatched files.  Be sure and see the docs for which ones of these are
acceptable and which aren't.

Hopefully, you don't have a need for MDAC 2.5 so that you don't have to
bother with any of this.

HTH,

Eron

The latest Component Checker version has the right info for MDAC 2.5 RTM,
which should eliminate the false positives.
