    Did you do a Windows Update before you tried installing?

    Do you already have a later version of VS on your new PC such as VS.NET? There could be a conflict with the files.

    Search Microsoft's site for AUTOEXEC.NT
    This is a common problem, and there is a download that has the correct settings. Sorry I don't have a link, but if you search on VBF, you should find that it's been answered before.

    Why is your link pointing to Adobe's site?

    That's the link I was thinking of. They are referring to your XP disk.
    Just follow the instructions, and things should go well.

    Here is another link, which links back.
