    Resolved [RESOLVED] Error installing VB 6.0 - Couldn't find Acme setup

    I've install VB 6.0 many times and never experienced this error. I'm trying to install on a Windows 7 32 bit machine. Has anyone seen this? The internet was not much help to me.

    acmsetup.exe is one of the files in the installation directory

    Thanks! I see it there and copied it to the same folder at the setup.exe but it still generates that error message. How do I get it to find it?

    The folder must have been corrupted somehow. I ran it from the iso/CD and it started right up. Thanks for responding.

    ACME? Is this Roadrunner or VB6?

    By the power invested in me, all the threads I start are battle free zones - no arguing about the benefits of VB6 over .NET here please. Happiness must reign.
