Failure to setup PC Interfacing in Win98

Hello, experts!
I was told that the prerequisite to the execution of PC Interfacing is a WIndows 98 or ME operating system. This, they say, is because the system of objects used is not supported by Windows XP.
My dilemma starts here because when I try to run setup in Win98, I get an error message that forces the operating system to shut down before actually loading into Windows.
Please help me figure this out. By the way, I have a Core 2 Duo processor PC with an ASROCK motherboard.
Greatly in need of your help. Thanks in advance.
