This is also the quickest option as you won't have to reset any customization you had in ACID Pro. If you have any problems after patching (as sometimes users report problems), completely uninstalling and reinstalling using only the update can definitely help. (The update acts as the full version in the event it can't find a previous version.) Just note that you'll have to reset options (and keep your serial key handy as you'll need it when launching ACID for the first time). Iacobus
