Cannot install neither VC nor VB on vista?
I'm trying to install VB6 and VC6 on my computer and before the installation I get error saying "ODBC's sqlinstalldrivermanager failed" then, at the 'actual' installation, when installer tries to copy DBNMPNTW.dll file, it stops and say "VB(VC)6.0 professional setup was not completed sucessfully"
I'v set the installer (ACMSETUP.exe)'s previlege level to administrator and it still gets that error.
I'm using WindowsVista build 5259.

The Visual Basic 6.0 runtime and IDE are supported on Vista RTM.
We’ve been testing the Visual Basic 6.0 SP6 runtime and IDE on Vista builds since earlier this year. Both run and install successfully on Vista RTM and are supported per the support statement posted at http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/vbrun/ms788708.aspx.
The Visual Basic 6.0 IDE and SP6 setup needs to be run with UAC on, with the local user running as Admin, running with elevated privileges (right click on the setup exe and select “Run As Administrator…”).
Visual Basic 6.0 applications need to be run under the same security/runtime settings (UAC/Admin/Elevated).
If you are having issues running using the settings described above, please post your issues on this forum or contact support directly and we’ll help you resolve the issue.
Thanks,
