Installing VB6 Pro on new laptop

[pdfalk]

When I try to install VB6 Pro on my new laptop (running XP pro with SP2)i get the following window after it asks for my Key number:

16 Bit Window Subsystem
c:\windows\system32\autoexec.NT The system file is not suitable for running MS-DOS and microsoft windows applications. Choose 'close' to terminate the application.

followed by the window:
coudn't find Acme setup

I've had no problems installing and running VB6 on my home computer running the same operating system, nor have I had any problems installing a myrid of other programs on the laptop.
