My PC has both VB6 and Vb2005 installed. When opening up VB6, windows
installer always try to "prepare to install" and hang my PC. Does anyone
know
the solution for this?


That can happen. It's Windows Installer at work for you. <g> Best thing to
do is just insert whatever disk (or browse to a folder) and let whatever it
wants to install, install. I've never heard of it hanging the PC, though. If
you don't let it install whatever it is that it wants to, you're just going
to get the same prompt every time you start VB.
