Steve,
I gave it a shot. It installed okay on a Win98 (_not_ Win98 Second Edition)
machine with minimal other software installed (one I'm rebuilding at work).
The machine had Office 2000 Professional (SR 1) and Norton AntiVirus 2000, and
that's about it. I installed the Ldraw base installation, the latest
Complete.exe, then ran the LDAO setup. It replaced some "older versions of
system files," whatever that means, then restarted and ran the setup okay.
Machine rebooted successfully, and LDAO worked.
Hope this helps,
James Wilson
