Quick System Info: ( Business Analyst 9.3.1 w/ ArcGIS Desktop 9.3.1 ArcEditor Single Use )
Starting Business Analyst, was asked to reinstall.
"The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable."
When opening Business Analyst after updating, received the following error message:
"Could not validate application directory: C:\ArcGIS\Bin\GxImageConnect.dll
Current ImageConnect loaded from C:\Program Files\ArcGIS\Bin\GxImageConnect.dll"

The article has different keys to update ( marked with a crossout ) and the corrections that I used in blue.
Follow these steps to change the directory path:
