Trouble launching the game 

Hello
I have a problem with Painkiller. Every time i launch the PainkillerSetup exe file it just doesn't work. I wait for 15 minutes, nothing happens... I tried many times. How can this be resolved?

Thank you for any help or advice.

RE: Trouble launching the game 

Hi.

Does the autorun window even appear or are you trying to do a direct install through setup icon?

Please check the setup compactability before installing.

Which version of the game are you installing anyway?

Had you previously installed Painkiller?

What is your OS? I realy hope it is WINXP.

RE: Trouble launching the game 

Thank you for replying :)
Well first time i tried to install, no autorun window appeared so i clicked on the setup file, but the next day the autorun window appeared after a long time, i clicked run the painkiller setup in the window that showed up, but nothing happended after 5 minutes, then i tried again to open the setup exe file but the same thing again...
Well and it's Painkiller Black Edition, from a DVD and it is the first time i install it. And also, unfortunately my OS isn't XP, it's Vista but that's not a problem appearently...

If your using vista try "running as admin" to do this right click on the .exe and press "run as administrator"

usually works for most anything

Vista is bad deal...

Painkiller was designed for WINXP.

Non less to that, usualy users owning Vista had dual core processors, i hope you don't, or don't expect then to play Painkiller online then...
