Hi there,
I just tried to install Visual Studio 6 Enterprise Edition in Windows 7. After Setting to Windows 98 Compatibility mode, the products were installed. But Unfortunately, Even Everything till main Installation Process went well and the Products were installed, the Setup closed with message Installation Failed. I could find the Products in the Appropriate place. But couldn't open any as a message Flashed:"Unexpected Error: Quitting"(Visual Basic 98). What can i do? I am a fan of Visual Studio 6 even i had Visual Studio Express 2010 just because of the clean .exe output it produces and better compatibility.Please Help me.
Thanks in Advance.

VS6 in 2012, really!

Try installing it in a Windows XP VM instead with : http://www.vmware.com/products/player/[^]
