Install quits without error message

kamagate · 02-16-2008, 04:28 PM

Hello,

I´m having some trouble installing OOTP 8 on my computer. When I click the install it starts normally but after a few seconds the program just dissapears without any error message or anything. It happends even if I don´t click next or do anything else. I´ve tried to install quickly (just clicking next as fast as I can) because sometimes it takes a bit longer before it goes away. Sometimes I get to the point where it starts to install but it always shuts down before the install is complete. I´ve tried to download another install thinking that maybe the first one was broken but the same thing happends. I´m guessing it´s somethin to do with my computer but I´m not great at figuring out these things so I´m hoping someone else has had the same problem and know what to do.

Edit: I have windows XP by the way.

Well, I managed to solve it so I tought I´d write it down in case anyone else have a similar problem. I downloaded a program called Task Manager and it identified a few process running on my computer that could potentially causing problems. I´m not exactly sure what they were but I think it was some kind of spyware. Anyway, I shut them down and after that I was able to install the game.
