I cannot run Visual Studio 6 on Acer Aspire 5920

Question

I bought Acer Aspire 5920 a month ago. I installed Windows XP SP2. But I cannot run Visual Studio 6 on it. ?
There is no problem during installation , but when i open Visual Basic I get this error message & the window of VB6 closes."The instruction at 0×03daa08d referenced 0×00000064, the memory could not be read."
I tried installing-Uninstalling of course.I also tried different CDs of XP.But I get the same Error.Do u think the software doesn't work with newer motherboards ?
