[Bug 942] - executing SETUP.EXE (Microsoft Visual Studio :: installing from CD)

Just an FYI - the install creates an exe in the /tmp directory - it is easier
to debug this with eg. 'winedbg E:\\vs60wiz.exe /location:D:' (E: maps to /tmp, d: is 
my cdrom).

relay tracing etc show the last thing it does prior to the trap is query a regirsty
key HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion, value: VersionNumber. It gets
back a return code of 2, and later dies. 

Looking at the disassembly I cant see an immediate tie to the missing key and the
trap, and my w2k system doesnt have this key.

Setting Version in config to win2k avoids this trap - perhaps the detection is invalid?
