That's what I would figure. % % Come to think of it, *does* setup show a window? If it does, which stage Nope. I double-click setup in Win Explorer, the cursor changes to an hourglass and the hard drive may or may not whisper, and then nothing happens.

Dunno; I don't have another Win machine around :-) But I copied my old setup program from CD (having tried to run it from there and then run it from a temp dir) and used Mozilla to pull down the current one, so I'm positive the former and comfortably confident the latter shouldn't have any translation problems. % % IIRC, Win95 was notoriously lacking tools for program monitoring and Yeah.
