- The fact that you moved software from a 68000 based machine to
- a 68030 based machine....and it crashed leads me to believe that
- *&^&&*^Microsoft's%^#$^$$&^ installer installs certain code based
- on which platform the installer is running on. $.0 runs fine on
- my IISi. Try using the installer.
