  • When you use the Setup Wizard in Microsoft Office 97 Developer Edition Tools to create disk images on a computer that is running Microsoft Internet Explorer version 4.0, and then you use the disk images to install the application on a computer running Microsoft Internet Explorer 3.x, Microsoft Internet Explorer 3.x no longer works. When started, Microsoft Internet Explorer 3.x does not display pages correctly.
