On VS 6.0, my MSDN library cds don't work right. On the first CD, I run D:\setup\setup.exe, and it seems to think that it's already installed, and (no less) to a weird folder on my K drive. (I've only got 1 hard drive, C.
To be exact, it says that all the components are already i
k:\msdnfiler\98VSa\103
with the sole exception of MSADC samples, which are "in
c:\program\common files\system\msadc\sample
THAT path exists, but in c:\program files\
Weird, huh
Also, I tried a KB article about writing both CD's to the hard drive, but couldn't get it to work. I noticed that "msdn331.inf" is missing, and "msdn332.inf" is there, but empty. Any help? Ideas? suggestions
BTW, is it possible to hand install the library? I don't care about how long it would take...does anyone know where I can put which files, and how to use the registry (or whatever's needed) to get VS to see them?

Which version of the MSDN Library are you utilizing with VS6?
Anything after the MSDN Library October 2001 will not work with the VS6
product.
