There was no warning, VB Enterprise and Vs6sp6.exe installed OK.
I didn't install SP5.
But remember that I installed VB6 and C++ only.
Intel Motherboard D945PSN.
Intel Dual Core 3.0 CPU
1 GB RAM
2 SATA hard drives using onboard SATA controller.
ATI All In Wonder x600 pro Video Card.
Additional to the onboard Gigabit network controller, I put
another Intel Gigabit Network card.
USR modem.
I put the computer together, XP 64 installed without any problems,
except the ATI card was tricky to install.
