Thanks Mark. I apologize that I don't fully understand when something 
like this happens. Especially when the errors change and the script 
sometimes completes and other times does not with different errors. I 
will fumble along and try to get a clean snapshot that I can use when I 
can get to doing a clean reinstall.
