    Unhappy Problems with distribution package

    Hi:

    After finished, I made a distribution package of my VB 6.0 program (.cab, setup.exe, and so on)

    When attemping to install, a message appear telling me something is needed about windows installation and the system must be restarted. When this, I did it.

    In those cases, after restart the computer, I have to run setup.exe again, and the same message appears again

    What's happening?

    Somebody knows why?

    P.S. All pc's win 2000 pro

    I also have had that problem reported from some of my users.

    Anyone know what this is about?

    My users were Win 98 OS.
