  I think that it's a problem with your environment variables. Check to
make sure that PVM_ROOT, PVM_TEMP, etc are set correctly (Even with the
InstallShield install, I think I had to fiddle with with the variables).
You may also want to make sure that they contain \'s as opposed to /'s.
One last possible fix is to ensure that the environment variables contain
the Dos type names. (I.e. 'c:\progra~1\pvm3\' as opposed to 'c:\program
files\pvm3')

I hope that helps.
