It just says "Program error" and closes before I could do anything. When I install it on a machine that was previously running VFP6 apps, it works fine. What could I be missing?

Based on what you describe, the problem seems to be that InstallShield is not installing one of the VFP required files. I am not currently using InstallShield express, but last time I tried, I selected these two object/merge modules:
