Thanks for the replies (Mort and Eric)...just FYI, I am the administrator of
the machine (it's the only profile I set up) and all the files are
"Archive". Also, since I tried this machine 6 times and failed every time,
and the one time I tried it on the Win98 machine it went smoothly, I'm
guessing I'm entering the CD-Key correctly. The annoying thing is it gets
all the way through setup, to the point of asking if you want ATT shortcuts
on the desktop (but not as far as asking if you want N4 shortcuts) before
barfing with that Win dialogue box about not being able to create a folder.
If I break into the OS at that point (hit the "Windows" key), I can see the
file structure, and I've even copied the folder to another name, so that
when I go back to the install program and click "Yes" or "No", and the error
comes up and erases my Papyrus folders, I've got a copy of it already saved.
But, when trying to load that program ends up with the message in the title.
Same message as when I installed it on Win98, copied it over to Win2K and
tried running it.
Something funny with N4 and trying to run under my system (which is pretty
standard and runs every other game with no issues).
Thanks again, I guess this goes back to Soft. etc.

John Wehman
