hello all, posting here also (posted a few days ago in the bugs sections, also trying tech support) as it appears that here there is a better chance that someone had this problem and see my message (this IS the biggest v3 section heh). during installation, in the "c++" part, I get an error saying there's already another version installed. however maxwell installer continues installation till the end. after that, whatever app I try to launch - render, monitor etc. - even as administrator - immediate crash (maxwell intel v120 stopped working etc.). any idea welcome! thanks.

The first thing I'd do in these cases is just uninstall everything, download the package again and reinstall, making sure you install with admin privileges.
