MrPompey Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 Initial installing by putting in the game disk and selcting the Steam activation it told me it was going to take over 4 hours to install!!! Dont even talk about zero's and O's on the product key I then cancelled this install and took the other option. Its been running an hour and has just 2 green blocks completed!!!! Is this normal for FM2009?? Previous installs were NEVER this long. Please let me know how long this should take Thanks Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
rusty_u Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 That would be because Steam is downloading the game off the web. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrPompey Posted November 14, 2008 Author Share Posted November 14, 2008 That would be because Steam is downloading the game off the web. Why on earth would it do that when I have the game on the DVD delivered today sitting in my DVD drive from which I selected to auto load the game e.g. I have not purchased via steam I bought the DVD and should be installing from that! This is nuts or I am nuts! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
