Installshield 5.0 setup fails with sp3 message

[saikalm]

Trying to run MSDE courseware running Setup.exe, comes back saying machine needs sp3 installed.

PC runs NT 4.0 with SP6.

Changed bonline.ini - Installtype to Local.

Installed Windows Installer 2.0

Nothing seems to help. Any suggestions would be great.

There is a way to get around this. Just replace the registry entries under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE:

[Software\\Microsoft\\Windows NT\\CurrentVersion]
"CSDVersion"="Service Pack 3"

[System\\CurrentControlSet\\Control\\WINDOWS]
"CSDVersion"="768"

Make sure you backup what is already there so you can restore it later.
