It was a bit of a bumpy road, but it is working now. I pieced together some advice from other messages here.

Here's a summary of how I got it to work:

1. I moved the existing chat to an archive directory name (chat.old).

2. Get the new flashchat 5.06 unzipped and uploaded.

3. Upload the files from this integration module as directed.

4. Get rid of the existing vbulletin36CMS.php or rename it.

5. Rename the vbulletin37CMS.php to vbulletin36CMS.php

6. *IMPORTANT* Go into your mysql database, and delete all tables that start with flashchat. I didn't do this at first and got a black screen when I ran flashchat. This step is only needed if you had flashchat installed before.

7. Now go ahead and follow the normal installation. Be sure to select Vbulletin 3.6 as your choice.

8. Follow the post-install integration instructions as well. You don't have to worry about the CMS file part. We already took care of that in the steps above.

That's what it took for mine to get working. Good luck!

Followed your instructions and it's installed great Works perfectly...
