I had trouble with SP6a from Microsoft. So, I can't say for sure if 6a is the
problem, however, it is quite possible.  Another thing, have you tried to edit
the registry and deleted all hives which contains the Chessbase hive?  I would
suggest using an uninstaller program like cleansweep, and do a registry sweep to
clean up the registry.  From my experience in the field, I'm a system
administrator, I had trouble with some software which was installed incorrectly
and afterwards no matter how many times I installed/uninstalled the program, it
kept refusing to load and giving error messages, Backup Exec 7 from Veritas was
one of such beast.  The only way I was able to re-install this program was to
run cleansweep and clean the registry. Try clean the registry.
