Default !!!BOOTVIS EATS UP MY DRIVE!!!

You seem to be the only one who has ever had this problem. I suspect
whatever you deleted from the registry has screwed things up so badly only a
reinstall of the OS will fix it. Bootvis is not installed nor uninstalled it
is an executable file that is run or not run. To remove it simply delete it.
In your case since you fooled with the registry without really knowing what
you are doing reformat and reinstall is your ONLY solution.

I have a fiew things for you to try
1, look in the services witch can be found in control panel ,

administrative tools, computer manegment , services and aplications, and
check for any bootvis services and stop them
then try an delete the file, if this dosent work
if your hdd is fat 32 boot to a fat 32 boot disk (i.e Win98 boot disk)

and
delete the file
if ntfs you will have to find a NTFS boot disk, witch will give you dos

style access to the ntfs disk and try and delete it
one deleted try and reinstalling bootvis, then diable it then try and

uninstall it

Hope this helps
