Hi,

I have a new machine that came with Vista on it. I have my original VB
CD's. (6.0 Enterprise 1.0).

I would think I would do that, and then install the Service Pack.

Both fail when installation.

Is there a secret of reinstalling from scratch VB 6.0 on a VISTA Business
machine?

Please help - I need to get back to programming and I can't. :-)

Some people have major difficulties, others very little, ie. Not everyone
experiences the same problem - and usually there are more than one. However,
be of good cheer - it can be done. <g>

It is impossible to say what is the correct course of action for you without
knowing what problems you are having. Saying it "fails" is useless.

Start with one install. Tell us the exact problem, error code, dialog, etc.

You might also do a google search of the microsoft.public.vb.~ groups - you
may find most of your questions have already been answered.
