Recommended Posts

I downloaded the demo and its 2.8gb. Now it says on my desktop its an unknown file type and I try to open it with winzip and it wont do it. What file type is it, zip?

You tell us. What's the extension? .zip, .rar or .exe? Or perhaps something else?

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.

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.

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.
