It almost ran using a shared desktop file...

I've been trying for the last three days to understand why Notes 7 fails to run on CrosOver Office. I ran tests on both, 4.2 and 5.0.0. Here's a summary of what I've been through:

1.- It won't install as win2k. The installation wizard won't go beyond setting file paths. By default it shows "\" for both, Notes and Data. When I changed the paths to where I wanted the files the wizard just got lost and it didn't allow me to keep going.

2.- It installs as win98 on 4.2. It almost ran after editing notes.ini to point Notes to an existing data directory (the one used by Notes 7 on my Windows XP partition). I was able to see my calendar for a few seconds and then the screen went blank. The interesting thing is that, by pointing notes.ini to an existing data directory, Notes stopped asking me to log on to Sametime.

3.- It installs as win98 on 5.0.0 but it doesn't run.
