Trouble Installing EQ6 Upgrade

I purchased CrossOver 6.0.0 today for Mac OS X and successfully installed Electric Quilt 5. It appears to work without any problems.

I then tried to upgrade from EQ5 to EQ6. This required that I install it in a WinXP bottle, and that I first install Internet Explorer and EQ5 in that bottle. That done, I ran the EQ6 upgrade program in the same WinXP bottle. It runs all the way through the upgrade process, but when I click "Finished" it goes to the next screen and hangs waiting for the installation process to finish. I tried multiple times, and after more than 30 minutes finally clicked "force finish installation". EQ6 shows up in my programs menu, but when I try and run it nothing happens. (The CrossOver icon flashes momentarily as if it's doing something, but the application never starts.)

I went to CrossOver Preferences and checked "Enable CrashReporter for Windows programs" and then tried running EQ6 again, but no crashes were detected.

Has anyone else gotten EQ6 working? Has anyone else run into this same problem? And suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
