Alcohol's Virtual drive
I assume this drive is AXV-CD/DVD Rom SCSI...
I have uninstalled Alcohol. removed remnants manually, removed Icon and ran reg cleaner. rebooted.
Then in Device Manager disabled the virtual drive and uninstalled the Drivers.
I also removed any Cookies relating to Alcohol that I could find.
Rebooted
After reboot it was installed automatically. This repeated 3 times and it still reinsalls automatically.

What am I doing wrong. I want to get rid of this
thanks
moen

Is ther ea reg cleaner that does a more thorough job than Reg Mechanic....that possible can find more remnants in Registry.

Go to control panels/system/hardware/device manager, find under "SCSI and RAID controllers" the Alcohol* SCSI controller, and remove it.

All Alcohol drives will disappear. Normally this happens automatically when you uninstall alcohol, unless at the uninstallation time you still had some image mounted.

You will Also need to remove Plug and Play Bios Extension from System Devices. and if needed the Virtual Drive Drivers from the Windows/System32/Drivers Folder.

* Name of the Virtual Drive Driver varies from version to Version.

Also look for the Alcohol AXV SCSI controller, the Plug and Play bios extension that has a347bus.sys as its driver and the a347bus.sys and a347scsi.sys drivers from the Windows/System32/Drivers folder.

THanks
I did alll this and Reinstalled Alcohol, but same problem
The Virtual file disappeared, and the P&p BIOS Ext and the l Scsi controller is back, just with an V infront of the old ScSI controller name.
I still cannot reinstall Alcohol. THe same Error appears saying that some old driver with the same name must first be removed.

O.K, Do the above and look for a Programs/Alcohol Folder.
I had it but couldn't delete it, it had 1 .dll still running in it.
Go into the register and delete all Alcohol references.
Then re-boot into safe mode and delete the Programs/Alcohol Folder.

Let me know if this works or not.
