Acrobat 5.0 installer installs, by default, both Acrobat and Distiller. Go to Start--Settings--Printers to see if it is there. Reinstall if you need to. It is a printing device under Windows. The label on the 5.0 software box says you need Win95 (OSR 2.0), 98, ME, NT 4.0 (with Service Pack 5 or 6), or Win 2000. I know it also works under Win XP.
