Problem installing the game/Running

DarkMattr · 01-12-2009, 08:54 PM

I run Vista 64bit and I ran the installer twice but when I click the desktop icon nothing pops up it does nothing, so I looked in the folder and it doesn't appear to be fullly installed, there are only three directories and no matter how I load it the game does nothing. It wont even get to the registration screen..

Please Advise..

I have tried running in Admin mode also, to no avail...

Please delete your setup file and try downloading a fresh copy and installing from that.

Have you tried directly running the OOTP9.exe program from within your OOTP Baseball 9 folder, rather than using the shortcut?

I am having the same issue. I am trying out the program using the demo 9 version, I've installed it, uninstalled it, reinstalled it, and tried running it from the file rather than the shortcut, and nothing happens.

For Vista I believe that you must right click and "run as administrator" for the first time. Worked for me.
