My machine is old:
CPU:                 AMD K6-II /400MHz (having AMD-DRX-Bug)
MAINBOARD:   Abit with Triton 430TX chipset  (AT)

I had no problems with RP8 installing. Acrobat 4 I have not even tried.  
Also I installed WS_FPTLE ftp client for Windows with no installation 
problems. Winamp 2.80 went fine also. With iview370.exe I got an error 
message 'Can't execute IVIEW370.EXE due to bad or missing MFC42.DLL'. 
Trillian installed fine but I couln't mount it. So Odin is not perfect 
at this time!

I don't think the problem is with hardware. But just wait awhile. 
Microsoft is forced to give out source code of APIs and thing are 
getting better for programmers.

After some days I get a newer machine, Abit KT7-Raid ata-100 with AMD 
Duron 700 MHz, and then I know what winsys32 likes and what not :)
