Some installation archives do not allow to extract files manually by renaming them to .zip, .msi or .cab. In order to get the files the archive contains, start the setup and continue until you get the error message telling you that your OS is not support. Do not click OK/Cancel at this time. Leave the setup running and open an explorer window to C:\Documents and Settings\Username\Local Settings\Temp\. Switch to details view and sort descending by Date of creation. One of the directories which were created 1 minute ago should contain the extracted files of the installation.
- in your project root directory, create a new directory called "js" (if it doesnt exist yet).

- now reload a page of your application, both javascripts are included in the html head
Sometimes, enabling compatibility mode does not work for some application setups. However, most applications still use MSI-based installation files. At the time your run the .exe setup file, it extracts the MSI file into your %USER_PROFILE%\Local Settings\Temp (for easier location of the extracted file, open the folder in explorer and order by access time in detail view). Just copy out the file to a location on your hard disc and edit the msi properties using Orca.
The LaunchCondition table in an msi file may contain rules that prevent an msi based software installation from installing on Server 2003. Cutting out any lines in that table will make the installation work.
