I have a few softwares that used to work well on our old 2k machines but wont install on the new 2k3 rdp servers... I've heard of some magical switch/methods for installshield/msg installers but couldnt find much info about it.... compatibility mode doesnt help

I know some of these softs are not made for 2k3 server, but there are some that i'd really need on this server in order to finalize my render farm... any idea suggestion?

(one of the soft is avid xpress)

What are the appz and check the application dev section (MSI / InstallShield) of www.msfn.org...

but a good start would be the name of the appz u r trying to install:
