getting ntvdm hard error

I have the Vista beta set up on two systems, one at my work and one at my home. I'm attempting to install the Borland Database Engine on both machines.
On my work machine, this setup.exe installs fine - however, on my home system I get a NTVDM encountered a hard error when I attempt to run the program. Anyone have any ideas why I get the error on one machine and not on the other?
Appreciate any help. Thanks!

I have experienced something strange. I have Vista set up on my laptop with Abobe Creative Suite 2 installed. Everything has been working fine until last night. Last night when I went to start up Photoshop, I received a ntvdm.exe hard error during the program's start up. I have never had this happen before. I don't understand why this program would even be executing when Photoshop opens considering it is for 16 bit apps and Photoshop CS2 is certainly not a 16 bit app.

This sounds like a programming error from the side of Adobe. That must be a worng call. Kind regards, Tony Thijs

I have had this happen with a number of programs that I have tried to install with Vista. The latest being mysql version 4.0. Would appreciate it if someone could get back to me regarding this issue.
