Install blues!

[jshudson]

Hi all. Im having major problems loading any self executing MATRIX games or updates. Specificaly: I'm running a Gateway Pent II 450 with windows 98. I have the antivirus disabled and all background applications closed or disabled. Each time I try to load a program I get the first Window...INITIALIZING SETUP, then a quick flash of the blue background and nothing. No error signals or indications of problems, just a quick flash and nothing, just booted back to WIN98. I have had this problem with the updates to SPWaW, WiR and now PW:Matrix Project. I have downloaded several times thinking I had corrupted downloads and even got the SPWaW CD and received the same symptoms. Hope some one out there has an idea on what to do. As you can imagine knowing these games are at my finger tips and not being able to play them falls under the major frustration heading!!

I too have exactly the same problem hudson. bu only with pacwar. spwaw and WIR installed fine. I posted twice on the 'problems' thread but had no response .. fingers crossed we'll get some luck here. If some bright spark can fix our mutual problem i'd be extatic. BTW my machine in p733 Tiny . w3dfx voodoo3 128ram. dunno if that helps any ..

Are you trying to install from DOS or Windows? I was succesful just installing from Windows. I have installed it on Win 98 SE and Windows 2000 without problem. Try installing directly from Windows if you havn't already. If you have tried from Windows and failed let me know more about your machines and settings and I'll dig a little deeper. I don't know if I can help or not, but I don't want you to miss this great game.
