No I do not delete the System Folder.

The 1st time I ran the installer, it got about 1/2 way through the 
install when I got an error message.  Something to do with the System 
Folder need to be moved to another folder.  The HD has two different 
folders.  One is 'System' the other 'System Folder.'  Was not sure what 
it was telling me, so I moved both to another folder.  When the 
installer was done, I moved the folder for 'System' back to HD, and 
since I now had a 'System Folder' on the HD, I tossed the, I guess, old  
'System Folder.'

When I clicked on the installer the 2nd time I noticed it had an 
'options' button.  I clicked on it and it asked if I wanted to do a 
clean install, so I checked the box.

I think what I did was just dumb luck, but now I know how to fix this if 
it ever happens again.  :)

Thanks for all the help,

Sherry
