Default Market

When I attempted to update my market I failed, now every time I try and open the app it force closes.

Is there any way I could revert back to the old market?

Much appreciated in advance.

When you find the vending.apk, before you install it, go into settings --> applications, choose Market, and clear its cache. Then, using a root-enabled file browser, delete vending.apk from /system/app, then reboot and then you should be able to install your new vending.apk. System apps have to be deleted like this most of the time in order to be uninstalled/reinstalled. Good luck

Thanks for the help but I just installed a different rom and stuck with the old market.

Having a new market doesn't really matter too much to me anyway, i just thought it would look nice.
