Default install loop and install failures Solved.....so far

I can no longer re-install. I'm asked to reboot when it gets as far as Avid driver 64 over and over again. I actually had 9.06 and 10.1.2 running on the same system. I had a small midi bug. Someone suggested trashing preferences. Huge mistake. 12 hours later I have absolutely no Protools and 3 clients that will be coming back soon for mastering and/or mixing. Pro Tools is slow at installing, uninstalling, booting.
I'm on about my 30th reboots The last 5 attempts at a clean install of PT 10.0.0 gets me as far as the Avid 64 driver. then it tells me to reboot over and over again.
I did so many rollbacks, reinstalls, etc, etc.

What to do?
Update

I did a search on all Avid registry entries using F3 and deleted them. I was finally able to do a fresh install with the usual errors that you can ignore by choice. 10.0.01 is installed and that's where I will stay.
