maddogx 13 Posted June 27, 2009 What file type is it, zip? You tell us. What's the extension? .zip, .rar or .exe? Or perhaps something else? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
doc_no1 0 Posted June 27, 2009 It's an exe and you dont need anything to open it,just double click on it and wait a wee while till it starts.Well on my win xp that's what happened. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
urbanwarrior 0 Posted June 27, 2009 I cant tell you what file type it is because as I said, it comes up as 'unknown file type'. I try to double click it like a normal executable file but it just asks which program I'd like to open it with, so i tried winzip and it couldn't open it so I don't know how to run the thing.

echo1 0 Posted June 27, 2009 Try renaming it to [whatever it's called].exe and then run it. But I suspect the download screwed up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
urbanwarrior 0 Posted June 27, 2009 Try renaming it to [whatever it's called].exe and then run it. But I suspect the download screwed up. That has worked, thnakyou very much. I wonder why it didn't come up as an executable in the first place, I'll just sort the DX9 error i'm getting now and I should be sorted. Thanks for the help all.
