Hello,
I just updated my PC to Windows 7 build 7600. After successfully
installing VB6 I tried to install the MSDN help library and I get a error
message" NTVDM.exe stopped responding" Although I am using Visual studio 2008
express,I like VB6 and would like to continue to use it.So is there any way
to install the MSDN? Or Is there any way to just run it off the disk? Any
help is greatly appreciated.

� Hello,

Have you tried running the setup as an administrator? If you right click on the setup executable and
select the Properties menu item you can select this option from the Compatibility tab, in addition
to the compatibility mode option.

Are you using the 32 or 64 Bit version of the OS?

Charlie expressed precisely :

Which MSDN? I had no trouble installing the Oct 2001 version, in
Win7x64, immediately following the VB6 install.
