Error when I try to install?
« on: June 09, 2004, 02:36:04 am »
Ok, so I remember coming to this game about a year..probaly longer ago and downloading and getting and talking on the forums...etc...etc..

anyway it was too good of a game for my computer back then (an onboard VGA) I just got a new vidoe card and though...\"Hey what about planeshift\"

So thats my story. Anyway I came and redownloaded the 5 part and the assembler, but when i double click the run me first it goes to this error.

See my screenshot to see the error.



I dunno what to do about it? help me?

Wha?!? Tee-hee! This clearly shows that windoze knows exactly what it\'s doing! ;)
However, it might even be (somewhat) right (happens sometimes). Try opening a dosbox (by selecting MS-DOS prompt in start->programs). If this really is an OS configuration problem, this should give the same error, because the pre-installer (run me first) is only a batch file, executed by DOS.
In the dosbox, type \"exit\" and then hit \"enter\" to close it again.
It seems to be W95 or W98 you\'re using?

What to do?

PLEASE!?! Why, can\'t you read?

\"To correct the problem, run Windows setup again\"

That wasn\'t that hard was it?
