Win 2000 – error running (SAGE Line 100)

While running the SETUP.EXE, from an NT 4 (sp6a) server share running DHCP, a windows 2000 PC (without and with the Win2K SP1) displayed the following message .. ..

Application Popup: 16 bit Windows Subsystem: The NTVDM CPU has encountered an illegal instruction.

Three other PC’s of the same model all installed with windows 2000 running the same EXE do not exhibit the problem and complete the installation of the Sage Line 100 program.

Apart from a possible hardware problem (this is a brand new PC, just out of the box) re-installing Windows from scratch seems like a possible course of action. Is there anything else that could be causing the problem.
