Well, you learn something new every day...... I wish I knew this around 2005 or so, it would have helped me help a whole lot of people - lol

We used the 'Don Wells' method back then on the XP systems and when Win 7 came out it was a completely new method to install SH1.

Now there's a disk going around that will install SHCE on any computer; Win 7, 8.1, & 10, and when it's done it leaves a start icon on the desktop. (it runs through DOSBox - included)

Thanks!

Happy Hunting!
