    Windows 2000 (Install software via package)

    I have made a package under Windows NT4.0 (SP5) for VB with the Package & Deployment Wizard. If I install the package on other Windows NT4 machines I have no troubles. The whole software is running without any problem.
    But if I want to run the package under Windows 2000 i get problems.
    I get the message
    "Setup cannot continue because some system files are out of date on your system. Click OK if you would like to update these files for you now. You will need to restart Windows before can run setup again. Click cancel to exit setup without updating system files."
    I click OK and the system is rebooting. After the system is ready to work i'll try to setup the package again. What happend is that the play described above happens again.

    What should i do?
    Must I build the pachage under Windows 2000?

    In the package i install:
    [Setup1 Files]

    I had the same problem until I installed service pack 3 or 4 for visual basic and that fixed it.
    Install the latest service pack (It's 5 now I think) an you should be fine
