I do not have admin rights on the machine. Is it something that simple?

<t> Now that would make sense, this is a work laptop. What I am curious about is what is being restricted since everything else I have installed does have an issue. Does PureSim copy files to folders that are usually restricted?<br/>

I am not trying to be a pain in the A** by asking this, I ...

<r> Thank you for your help. See attached.....<br/>

<t> Windows XP Professional. I have an active Virus Scanner running at all times (unless I shut it off per Shawn's advice) and run an active anti-spyware program. I would agree that this could be anything, but I have about 10 other games on this laptop that run without issue and apps for work etc ...

<r> Then it brings up the standard install screens...it will finish that correctly, but if I try to run the game, i get the following...<br/>

I am still looking for some help in determining why I cannot install this application on my laptop. I posted to the support forum and followed your directions. I still cannot get the install to run. I have installed a ton of apps on this laptop with no issue, only this game ...

<t> Ok, now I am confused. I was able to fully disable virus protection, re-download the file, checked my disk (no errors) and still have the same error.<br/>
<br/>
It gets to the point where it is copying STDOLE@.TLB into the system32 dirc, hangs for a while, finishes the copy and then....<br ...

Didn't work, however the game runs fine on my PC. It just doesn't work on my laptop. I think it is due to the virus protection installed by my office onto the laptop. I cannot get it completely turned off.

Ah well - I guess I will just use the PC version.

In addition, when I do run the game and click on Play. I get the following...

The Instruction at "0x734493d9" referenced memory at "0x0241ad58". The memory could not be "read"

Click on OK to terminate the program.

<t> When i try to run the install I get the following error<br/>
<br/>
INF Install Failure. Reason: The I/O operation has been aborted because of either a thread exit or an application request.<br/>
<br/>
I can click on OK and proceed with the install, but the game will not start.<br/>
