Guest Duncan007 Posted December 2, 2009 Report Share Posted December 2, 2009 Unfortunatly that has not worked for me, so it looks like I'll be waiting for an alternate to be available. I've had one of the old versions of the mod, but am now on a new laptop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Duncan007 Posted December 2, 2009 Report Share Posted December 2, 2009 I allow it to make changes and then nothing happens afterwards, the installer does not launch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dizza Posted December 2, 2009 Report Share Posted December 2, 2009 The installer worked just fine on Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit for me and game works fine.Try disabling the UAC, click on Start, type in "msconfig" into the search box, click on Tools tab, look for "Change UAC Settings" and disable it. Reboot and then try installing it again. If it doesn't work, turn the UAC back on to protect yourself.-d Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoppah Posted December 2, 2009 Report Share Posted December 2, 2009 I hope to get Windows 7 for my laptop soon, so I can try it too. It should work though. You are the first one who can't seem to run the installer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you have a quality Anti Virus like Nod32 with Malwarebytes as a back up, disable UAC and tont deal with it as its just one big PITA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xplorer4x4 Posted December 3, 2009 Report Share Posted December 3, 2009 Perhaps I have it confused with M$ Security Essentials or whatever it is, but pretty sure the article mentioned UAC. Maybe ill dig it up latter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest b00m Posted December 5, 2009 Report Share Posted December 5, 2009 This is solved now. He had Kaspersky (Antivirus) blocking it Anyway, I suggest have also the mod packed so people with installation problems can just unpack it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xplorer4x4 Posted December 7, 2009 Report Share Posted December 7, 2009 Kaspesky was to paranoid for my tastes. I prefer Nod32. It stays paranoid, but not to overly paranoid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Timeruler Posted December 15, 2009 Report Share Posted December 15, 2009 I prefere Bitdefender, only habit of that is that it sometimes blocks its own update in the firewall , easy fix, but a bit annoying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
