That got only a little bit farther.  It did find the setup program,
and the option dialogs seemed to work properly, but very shortly
after starting the actual install I got an error box:


                             VISIO Setup

   ! Tried to create an invalid path using 'A:\' and 'clipart.vs_'


and it locked up the display so that CtrlAltF1 would not switch
to a text screen (although it did allow AltTab to bring up FVWM's
window list).  After clicking OK:


                             Visio Setup

                           i Setup failed.


and it quit.
