Yes, but I encountered the same problem with a hang near the end of the
install. Never did figure out the cause, but it is possible to work around
the hang by using the DOS 'expand' command to manually decompress the few
remaining files from the install diskette. I forget which ones they were,
but it should be sufficient to know that all the files install in
\windows\system\win32s, with the following exceptions:

In \windows\system directory - w32sys.dll
                                                 win32s16.dll
                                                 winmm16.dll

Also make sure the following line has been added to the [386Enh] section of
your system.ini file:

                device=c:\windows\system\win32s\w32s.386

Hope this helps,

Tim
