			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Yesterday I was fighting an old server and trying to figure out if I really had a problem.  I went through the steps of upgrading the BIOS, ESM, PERC driver and firmware and then lastly the Open Manage software.  </p>
<p>Then I could not get the Array Manager and previous Dell software to uninstall.  I tried lots of things including stopping services and disabling them.  Also deleted the folders.  But wait the DLLs are in use and I could not get them to unregister manually.  So I was stuck.  I could get the old version uninstalled and I couldn&#8217;t get the new version to install because of the previous version.   Catch 22 huh?</p>
<p>I found my answer here.  <a href="http://www.absoblogginlutely.net/mtblogarchive/2008/10/dells-omclean-t.php">http://www.absoblogginlutely.net/mtblogarchive/2008/10/dells-omclean-t.php</a></p>
<p>Look under the folder that was created when you unzipped the software.  You will see a sub folder called OMClean.  You then will see an OMClean.exe.  Run this and this process will remove all the left behind Dell software junk.  Reboot the server. </p>
<p>Now you can install Open Manage.</p>
