... on my WinXP machine. Will I clobber 3.7.6 if I uninstall the two earlier ones?

  Not if they were installed into separate directories. Uninstall the previous versions and then run 3.7.6.
  
  When performing a new install of a new version of Capture One on Windows please uninstall current version from add/remove programs and install the new version. Preferences and activation information will remain.
  
  On Mac platform you can over install. Preferences and activation information will remain

  Thanks, Rebecca. I just took the defaults when installing newer versions, so they all installed into the same directory. x
  
  What would be my strategy now? Uninstall 3.7.4, then 3.7.5, then 3.7.6, then re-install 3.7.6? It should remember my sessions, settings and other magic stuff?
  
  Win XP

  You could just ignore the entries, they mean nothing, they are just keys in Windows registry.
  
  Or if you are not faint-of-heart you could fire up regedit.exe and navigate to:
  
  My Computer\\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SOFTWARE\\Microsoft\\Windows\\CurrentVersion\\UninstallThen find the "Capture One xx 3.7.x" keys (folders) and remove them, leaving the 3.7.6 key. Next time you start up the Add/Remove Programs control panel applet those two entries will be gone.
  
  To be a little more safe you can right click on a key and choose "Export" to save a .reg file before you remove it. If something goes wrong running that .reg file we re-add the keys to your registry.
  
  Messing in the registry is a good way to screw up Windows, but if you are careful it also unlocks some powerful abilities (like removing uninstall entries) that are not presented in normal GUIs.
