| 877750 | 2010-04-18 07:57:00 | i have got dawn of war 2 from a friend but for some reason when i go to install it it starts trying to install the 3rd party software to run the game and then an error message pops up saying install failed, i have made sure the disk is spotless and i installed steam which the game needed to run. i have no idea why its not working. My PC is a core i7 860 2.8GHZ 4gb ram 500gb hdd DVD ROM drive and a 8600gt GPU with win 7 so it should easily be able to play this game, any help is greatly appreciated | smithinator (15240) | ||

| 877755 | 2010-04-18 09:04:00 | Send an email to whoever made it / or post a ? in their forum. Or kill UAC reboot then try again. Did you open the cd/dvd then run the setup file? | Speedy Gonzales (78) | ||

| 877758 | 2010-04-18 20:53:00 | i have got dawn of war 2 it starts trying to install the 3rd party software i installed steam which the game needed to run. Uninstall Steam. If the game needs it it will install it itself. Try the install again after removing Steam. |
