I am having a problem trying to install some Sierra software on an HP
Pavilion PC.  The software installs fine on 4 other machines I have,
but when I try to execute the SETUP.EXE I get a blank window which
looks to be an error. When I click on OK....I show that a GPF was
created by the SETUP.EXE.

From SIERRA support, they suggested deleting the SIERRA.INI file and
not doing the system test. For kicks I tried it, even though I never
get anything to install. DID NOT WORK!

From HP it was suggested off their bulletin board to turn the DMA
option off of the CD-Rom. I did this, but it still did not install.

Has anyone found a reason and/or solution to installing SIERRA Software
on a HP Pavilion running Win98???

Thanks,
Mike
