I have no experience with Windows 1.0 DR5, but I'm curious what drive size you are trying to install it on.

I'd guess if you were trying to exceed the maximum values addressable to DOS, that would cause issues. I think MSDOS has a limit of 2gb per logical drive. If you were using modern tools or emulating a larger drive, I would imagine that would cause issues.
