By this I mean that it gets an unhandled exception, failing to read a memory address (dereference NULL). Windows 2000 Pro reports: The instruction at "0x004154f1" referenced memory at "0x00000000". The Memory could not be "read". Debugging with MS Visual C++ 6 reports: "Unhandled exception in setup.exe: 0xC0000005: Access Violaton.
