Hi guys!
Anyone knows how can i fix this!?
Earlyer installation is completely removed from my pc.

No matter you uninstalled the other version, it must have left some registry entries in you Windows system. You should find it somehow in the regedit file and delete them (something I wouldn't really like to give advices about since I'm not a windows expert myself).

There shouldn't once the program is uninstalled but ask somebody who knows it better. Also teher are a couple of nifty registry cleaners out there that may be able to do the job for you. Also make sure that after uninstalling the program, you remove everything from the Program Files folder (Google/Google SU 6)

Elisei,
There are some Registry entries under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/GOOGLE, but all the serious stuff is in various sub-folders of HKEY_CURRENT_USER/SOFTWARE/GOOGLE/SketchUp6

It's usually not a good idea to meddle with this stuff...especially as much of it can be set via Preferences, but it does occasionally have its uses...like when a dialog box disappears off the screen. You can go to the appropriate Snappy folder and reset its coordinates to bring it back from Outer Space.

Glad you sorted out the install problem.

I uninstalled the Sketchup because of the graphic driver wich i updated a while ago.Since then when i was working in SU the screen was flashing and sometimes freeze in pieces,the lines were wider,when selecting some tools the screen was like a haotic animation

hm all that because of my nvidia gforce 8600 GT (1024mb)driver update....what was wrong?
right now i ve reinstaled the original driver and all is fine!!
Computers...but i never gave up!
