Noob install questionq
Okay I downloaded the PR 087 bundle from file planet with the download manager and put them on my desktop. I click open and nothing happens just the hard drive starts running. This is very frustrating to me and yea I am a noob so sorry but am I doing this all wrong? Some help would be greatly appreciated.

Re: Noob install questionq
Okay well I waited like 30 mins? Should I reboot or keep waiting? Should I extract it into the bf2 folder? Just want to make sure I am good to go here. And thank you for the reply my friend.

Re: Noob install questionq
30 minutes should be enough, try running it as an administrator or in XP compatibility mode.

Re: Noob install questionq
Let it run. After starting the setup just stand-by whit patience, It's the same whit the other setups in vistaant it should ask you for authorization in a while
But after 15min's of running you should consider other options
