Vic Taylor Posted December 26, 2009 Share Posted December 26, 2009 Welcome to the forums! And what is exactly happening when you insert the disc? Nothing? Or does it start the installation process and then stop? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gentleman Posted December 26, 2009 Share Posted December 26, 2009 The drive being a CD-ROM drive while FM being a DVD-disc? Or, if you get to the point of starting anything even remotely similar to an installer, do you get any errors? Screenshots are useful then Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its a dvd drive on my laptop runnin vista. sorry took my time but couldnt find my post lol When you put the disc in do this: Start -> Control Panel -> Add or Remove Progams -> Add New Programs -> CD or Floppy The installation process should start.

Diablo83 Posted December 26, 2009 Author Share Posted December 26, 2009 Still no joy installation isnt working. The game i found in my games folder refers to the steam copy im downloading. I tried to play it through the steam copy but it hasnt downloaded yet and when i clicked it i got error code d3dx9_41.dll which is to do with direct x so i downloaded the new update for that program but still when i insert the disc i get no response at all. Does anyone have any clue why this could be? Ty for all previous posts i have tried your suggestions but to no avail. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
