Help with Windows 2.9 Beta

Mr.BeanBag

I downloaded Windows 2.9 Beta from WinVision but all I have now is the files in .rar files. Could anyone help me on how to install this os.
[I tryed to run the setup.exe app but I got some crap about the windows configeration... :? ]
Thanks

1st. Windows 2.9 Beta is a FAKE. Somone hexedited the WINVER and SETUP.EXE files to make it say 2.9 and 2.9 Beta.

2nd. Ask WinMan, he probably made it.

I tried it and it IS fake. Half the shit even says 3.0A. I mean....3,0A?! The dumbass wasnt even smart enough to use 3.0 instead of 3.0a OR even try to relabel ALL the about boxes to 2.9. For god sakes, the bootscreen even says 3.0.

Tsk Tsk Tsk... He should've been more careful.

Mr.BeanBag

I hex edited a copy of Windows 3.1 to say Evil Windows 3.1. I only did it for shits and giggles.
