Subject: [v2.416] Cannot install Cygwin, using setup.exe

Hello,

I have a problem in installing cygwin. It won't 
work :(
I describe what I were doing:

1) Start setup.exe v2.416
2) Clicked next
3) Chosen: Install from local directory
4) Clicked next
5) Root directory: "C:\Cygwin", install for "all 
users", default text file type "Unix"
6) Clicked next
7) Local package directory "C:\Temp"
8) Clicked next
[MD5 Check here]
9) Set all categories to "Install"
10) CANNOT click next nor back. Just Cancel works 
fine. :-(

So, how am I able to install cygwin using 
setup.exe?

Some further stories about this pc:
[Windows 2000, German edition]
[P3 500Mhz, 768 MB RAM (SDRAM)]
Before I want to install this cygwin, I tried to 
install some older version (don't know exactly 
which version). The installation process won't 
complete. It locks up itself on about 80% of total 
installation completed.
Using taskmanager to kill the setup process, 
delete the installed files manually and delete 2 
registry keys (cygnus solutions) should leave a 
clean system (i think).
Now all I want to do is to reinstall cygwin, but 
the "next" button is always disabled :( I am not 
able to install cygwin.

Anybody knows what this is about?
