I am trying to install an acrobat reader on a win 98 SE machine. This
machine had previously handled the reader quite well but had to have the
system reinstalled after a virus attack. Now the install begins, files are
prepared, and then the installation wizard says: "acrobat does not run on
this operating system and installation is cancelled.". I have tried three
different versions of the reader, all for windows 98, each from a different
source. All produced the same result. I tried e-mailing adobe but received
an automated response saying "go to our web site." I tried the web site and
discovered ways of dealing with lots of problems, but there was no mention
of this problem. There seemed no practical way of getting direct advice on
the free reader. Has anyone else encountered a problem installing the
accessible version of acrobat reader? Are their windows components or other
files which might not have been reinstalled when windows was placed back on
the machine that might cause this problem? In short, anyone have any ideas
at all?
