I found a thread about the problem with installing Autocad Mechanical Desktop Powerpack 4 with Windows XP operating system.

The thread was helpful to an extent. In order to make it work I had to run the Program Compatibility Wizard in the Start Menu > Accessories folder.

Once the window pops up click "Next" then check "I want to locate the program manually". If you are trying to install from your cd-rom, click "Browse" and go to your cd. Find the "Setup.exe" file and choose "Next". I believe either the Windows NT, 98 or 2000 should work. Click "Next" and follow the remaining directions.

This should make it work. Hope this helps.
