Description:
At first, I installed MySQL Server 4.1 version(4.1.5), and then i uninstalled it.

When I install a new MySQL Server 4.1 version(4.1.13a), it says that "Error 1714. The old version of MySQL Server 4.1 cannot be removed."

How to repeat:

I was unable to reproduce that behavior on XP Pro SP2.
