Will Not install on Win98SE & Me.
Hello, I have an installer made and it's working pretty good and have all the CVS and NSIS updates. But, Win98SE and WinME users are saying that it will not install at all. I've had 7 people test it and they say on these OS they double click on the *.exe I made and nothing loads/starts. Any suggestions? Works PERFECT on WinXP and Win2000.

I have a splash screen that shows and then I install to the registry for Add/remove hardware but the coding is fine, or seems fine. Any suggestions?

Even Windows itself looks stable till MS Word is not installed :)
IMHO NSIS looks very good on Win98 too, so 1) remove CVS updates and test distribution with stable 2.0 or 2.01 version; 2) check Win98 compatibility of your script - API calls, registry nodes, etc..

Also make sure they don't have any malware or outdated antivirus closing down the installer.
