Okay, I un-zipped that and tried it, and same results, namely nothing. The IDE does not start up.
I have looked in the Event Viewer, and looked for "Debugging" or "Logging" options to netbeans.exe and nbexec.exe, to try to figure out what is going wrong, but maybe someone reading this will recognize what is going on. Or, at least, have an idea of how to debug this problem.

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.
