Did you first *uninstall* 2.0.51d???

Remember that the 2.0.51d was made with the Innosetup installer and
there may well be interactions if you just run the MSI for a newer
version on top of that.
One thing that has changed is the name of the service for instance, in
2.0.51d time it was named cvs but nowadays its name is cvsnt, this
caused a lot of problems even for the Innosetup installer that I
continue to maintain. But I have now code in the install script that
locates and uninstalls the old cvs service if it exists. I do not
belive the MSI installer can do this...
