-> I was running windows 8 

Intentionally? :)

-> when installing disk hang at finalizing setup

So this was an incomplete install on Windows 7 32bit or 64bit?

-> received wcsetup dootnt.dll could not open

Which sounds like either a 16bit component issue with a 64bit OS or a media
error on a 32bit OS.

If the install was incomplete it could point to issues with regards to
component registration and/or a missing VC++ redistributable 

-> when using wcstart wcsmtp will not load, so when trying to use command 
-> prompt to invoke it seems to proceed but no icon shows as running in .

When invoked at the CLI does it appear when you type TASKLIST.  That is are
you certain the process is running?

Are you running within a Windows7 user account where error reporting is
turned OFF via:

   Control Panel > System and Security > Action Center
   > Change Action Center Settings?

If error reporting is off you will not see the wcSMTP.EXE startup error(s).
