Those file names mean they are install files, not usable as is. The
installer is supposed to take care of it although I'm not certain what
all it is supposed to do. You can't just rename the files as they won't
work so there must be some kind of magic involved.

Sorry can't help with windows as I haven't fired up my w2k machine for
over a year. ever since I got the powermac.

Although I'm going to set a machine up with a SSD to see how that works.
So if you still haven't gotten this running in the next month or so then
shoot me a note and I'll give it a whirl, see if I can monitor the
install and then ship it to you as a package.

Special knowledge can be a terrible disadvantage if it leads you too
far along a path that you cannot explain anymore.
