What is the error? Most likely vb6 programs are just too old to run on windows 8, but that is just my guess.

Try using Rose Setup Factory. Been using it in creating installers from VB6 projects.

Enables Serial Key for installer or even an Expiration date.

Try INNO. It's free and very good. Depending on the OCX files in your program, you will need to install them into the C:\Windows\SysWOW64 directory Windows 7 & 8, instead of the C:\Windows\System32 directory in XP. Not sure about Vista.
