Thank you for your reply Martin.
Just as a follow up to my post. I ended up using the installer-less zip and that worked fine.
I have a problem similar to yours (also Win2k, etc), but my install of 6.1 went to completion. Whenever I try to start NetBeans, nothing seems to happen. I can see in Task Manager that it starts up and then immediately exits. No idea why.
Anyway, I wanted to try the "installer-less zip". I went to
http://download.netbeans.org/netbeans/6.1/final/zip/ and downloaded a couple of the zips, but nothing seems to be what I need.
Can you please take a few moments, and describe the install that worked for you? Or, point me to the instructions? Gee, thanks!
I personally used
http://download.netbeans.org/netbeans/6.1/final/zip/netbeans-6.1-200804211638.zip, that is the has everything. But you can do to
http://download.netbeans.org/netbeans/6.1/final/ and change the OS selection to "OS independent zip file" and it will let you select what is included in your zip file. Once you have that just unzip the file into a directory and run the exe located in the bin directory.
