Ok there are two possibilities.

1. The better one: Delete everything. Make a clean new install and then the
Update. The bad thing with this is that you have to backup books or learnfiles,
Engines etc ...

2. Easy one. copy the OS66....dll into the new Chessbase folder. You will found
it in the old folder. If you did this it will miss a second dll that you have to
copy too and voila here we go. Maybe you have to do some slight changes in the
Chsbase.ini for pathes.

Normaly I would suppose that you had an install of the young tallents and tried
to install the F6 Upgrade. Which will work the same way as described above.

Bye
Ingo
