Hi all

I am having issues installing this, i have ended up downloading the file, and trying to install it from my desktop, but nothing happens, the cursor just does the busy signal, and nothing happens

I did notice when i tried to install it that a process called consent.exe was running I am assuming this is part of the UAC, however it never appeared on the screen.

It just hangs there, the rest of the computer works fine, infact i have got it installing as i write this, but nothing is happening

Any suggestions would be appreciated

it just hangs so i kill it in task manager.

it looks like a good game, shame i can't play it :(

Anyway the game is now installed, I tried installing again and after about 10 mins the install dialog came up, and the game seems to be installed, i haven't tried running it yet though.
