AJ hasn't committed the patch I sent in yet. When he does it won't hang
anymore (but I'm seeing other problems). Fortunately Jeremy is going to
lock Rob in a room until InstallShield works shortly, which is good
because I don't have any spare time to work on this right now
(university sucking ...)

Good!

Try finding a MessageBeep() call in the relay log in case of the speaker beep
to find out what it is complaining about...

Update:
I found the following tip on frankscorner.org:
 WINEDLLOVERRIDES="ole32,oleaut32,rpcrt4=n" wine setup.exe
this enabled me to successfully run the installation for NS 7 prefered.
This did not work on wine-20050211
Thanks for your help.

Hi Mike ,
any progress here?
I have just updated to wine-cvs (2005 03 05  9am CET) and I see no change  
in this blockage.

Installshield runs upto the point where I have selected the install  
options then locks up when I click "next".
The only respone I can get is that any mouse click or key press when it  
has the focus gets a beep from the pc speaker so it's not complely crashed  
but something is badly wrong.

Any suggestions.
I guess I'm not alone here.
Regards,

I had to kill the parent.
There has been some regressions in Wine recently it seems , what would

Thanks.
Same here. I was trying to install the Empire Earth 2 demo, just for 
fun, but the installer bailed out with an error message.

Thanks to whoever has some info,
