I haven't seen any replies to this, so please let me clarify -

I have a system Win2k SP4 that I would really like to get KDE installed on.
I had tried the batch building method before, but was unable to get it work at the time; 
I noticed the KDE Windows Installer package and the support for "Windows 2000", 
and downloaded it; but have been unable to get even the very first dialog box to come up 
for some reason.

I do have MSVC++ 2005 Express installed and use it regularly on the same system.

While I do develop - and have written several installer packages myself - I 
have not seen this specific issue before. Usually a message comes up - saying 
that it requires a newer version of the MSI system, or that the OS isn't 
supported, or something else.

I have tried this as both my own normal user (power user group; by running a 
command-line shell as the administrative user - works for installing most 
everything) and as the administrative user (administrator group), but have been 
unable to get it to work.

If there is any more information needed, please let me know and I will happily 
get it to you as soon as I can - either on or off list.

Any tips, etc. on how to get the KDE Windows Installer working would be greatly 
appreciated.


I fixed an issue in the installer (a WinXP-only function was used) some days ago but did not build a new executable. Ralf can you plz create a new one? But I wonder why there's no error message. Can you try to unpack kdewin-installer.exe with upx (upx.sf.net) and run it again? At least then we should see an error message.
