isuckatfm Posted March 2, 2008 Share Posted March 2, 2008 Does your logon name in Vista involve any special characters? If so log on as a different user with a standard log on name not involving special characters (e.g. just letters). Then attempt the install again.

topuphere666 Posted March 2, 2008 Author Share Posted March 2, 2008 no my user name is topuphere666 and my password is all numbers.... if thats any help Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
isuckatfm Posted March 2, 2008 Share Posted March 2, 2008 Slightly confused here . Your profile name on this forum is the same as your log on user name when you start Vista? Try removing the 666 or log on with any other user whose name only involves letters. Also maybe updating Java might help. http://java.com/en/download/index.jsp Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

isuckatfm Posted March 2, 2008 Share Posted March 2, 2008 don't know what else to tell you as those are the two causes of that error that I know of (not saying there the only ones):- 1. the bug in the installer software with recognising user names with special characters or 2. relevant Java VM not being installed Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neil Dejyothin Posted March 2, 2008 Share Posted March 2, 2008 topuphere666 - You may be able to solve this by temporarily switching your theme to Windows Classic from Windows Aero. Then try installing the game and then afterwards you can switch it back to the Aero theme. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bjorn-o Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 Same problems here... When i put it in, i can choose in what language i want to install it but then i immediately get the GUI error... Still no answers for this problem?? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bjorn-o Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 I play on a laptop as well btw. With MS Vista. Maybe that's got something to do with it? Coz i burrowed this game from a friend, he played it on his computer and that did work... So the problem is definately not in the cd, but in the laptop... Anyone help, im desperate to play!!
