I asume the dashboard was written in VB6 (like the IFI_Loader). If thats true, then you will need to have (and support) 2 DLLs:
-the VB6 runtime
-The mscomm control (mscomm32.dll?)

Likely, if you already have updated versions of these, you won't even need to install! If you need them (Or have Windows ME, which might make the install spit at you), PM me with an e-mail address and I'll send you an install for a dummy-comm app. That should install the need DLLs.

The exe itself is in the cab (it's a standard cab), Extract it out of that. It should run fine. And for anyone worried about there system being too old, VB still provides support for Pentium procs with FDIV probs.
