Post by Dennistoun »

hi,
i've just downloaded jtcs today and when i click on "open" my screen flashes violently therefore preventing me from going thru with the installation. i have to close down the computer when it flashes like this. does anyone have any suggestions on what this might be?

Hi teddy

I looked at the attachment, but it appears to be for something else.

Okay I did purchase today the download/hard copy option realizing that the hard copy is now shipping again. But I tried to download the game so I could get back in the swing of things until my hard copy arrived. however I am having issues with the download. I posted in the support forums and have not received any response yet.

I am downloading the game to my desktop, my cache is clean, cookie control set on medium. But when I double click on desktop icon I get no response. Any ideas fellas?
I have tried three downloads.

Instead of the desktop icon, maybe try double clicking the exe where the file was downloaded on your machine?

I would suspect a firewall issue. My download is 566mb. I don't remember if it was a zip or the exe but I have the exe in a folder. Right click your download and check properties to see what you have.
 
What operating system do you have? Do you have admin rights?

I have xp sp2 on pc & vista on my laptop. even if i disable my firewall I still get no results.

OK-update.

I tried a re-download turning off my firewall and downloading to my c-drive rather than my desktop. I finally got to the install wizard screen and game appears to be installing ok so far on my pc. fingers crossed.

Success - it installed on the second try and game appears to be functioning normally. I am off to try the bootcamp scenarios to re-learn how to play. weeee!

It does work on my PC, but still won't install on my laptop w/ vista. I'll try again when my hard copy arrives.

Thanks for the update reminder! [:)]
