it seems to hang up on registering fonts (animals1.ttf, etc).
Any tips on resolving this ?
Hello doc; What system are you trying to run Ver. 6 on? ( It is so old you may have to knock the mold off the flopy ) I don't think ver. 6 used ttf's, and I don't think the old fonts works in any of the newer Windows?

Yeah, sorry.
Its a MS Windows XP Pro SP3.....I'm pretty sure my dad used this on the predecessor PC that was the same OS
This looks interesting. I haven't read it all, but it suggests TTF should work in version 6.

Of course, the document is much older than windows XP so you'll possibly have to guess at some OS-specific steps.

TTF fonts don't really need registering in XP. So if that's the only problem, try to find an install option that skips the fonts altogether. Then just copy a minimum subset of important fonts from the install CD, DVD or floppy into c:\windows\fonts.

HI.
I've seen this exact issue before but not with version 6. Create a fake file called animals1.ttf and place in the directory it should be in. Setup will resume when it finds the file.

doc I think if you want to do some graphics of some kind you would would be doing your self a favor by up grading. Ver 6 was good in it's day but wouldn't hold a light to what the newer ver. can do, you are trying to use a program from the mid 90's and may have to go back to a 3 or 4 86 computer to run something that old?
