Unable to load Frontpage onto Vista machine

[Batik1]

I recently bought a new Sony with Vista on it. It is a 64 bit machine. I'm
attempting to move Frontpage to the new system, but it won't allow me to do
so. I have 2003, but I originally started with Frontpage 98. I have the
original disc for Frontpage 98, as well as the Frontpage 2000 upgrade and
ultimately the 2003 upgrade. When I attempt to load the 98 disc, I get the
message "The Frontpage component setup program F:\FrontPg\enu\setup.exe
cannot be started, error number 5" . Any idea how I can load this thing?

Do not try to install 98.
Start the 2003 install and when it asks for the qualifying product, insert the 98 disk
and then reinsert the 2003 disk when prompted.

I have a new 64 bit Vista machine too. FrontPage 2003 loaded promptly
without a hitch and works great.
