When I click Install that window just disappears and nothing happens. :(

aww man, that sucks. :(

Have you tried "exploring" the disc through COMPUTER?

I know I do that sometimes :)

Right click on your DVD drive with the disc in and choose Explore and find Setup :)

Sometimes that works for me :D

Like scremanie said, have you tried running setup.exe manually from the DVD's folder?

Yeah but then how do I make it install to a folder on the start menu? The option doesn't come up. I need that for mods.

The option to include Start Menu and desktop shortcuts should appear somewhere in the process of installation. I've not got mine to hand to find out exactly when it asks you that, but it does. It may not ask you until right at the very end, when the game is all but installed.

As for mods, I don't see why the game's presence in the Start Menu should matter at all :confused:

DO IT! :ohn:

:p

If you're using texmod for mods, then you can just explore your computer for the Anni.exe when you need to :)

ok, I chose custom installation and I was able to install it to the start menu. Hopefully it will work now.
Spong, it was nowhere to be found before.

Note, this is why I prefer console gaming. :p

ok, I chose custom installation...

*sigh*

Don't know why you didn't do that from the word go :rolleyes:
Anyway, you're done now and that's the main thing :tmb:

For **** sake. Even though I actually selected it to install to a folder in the start menu, it didn't. :confused: What the ****?! :cen: It made a shortcut, though, and I get this:

Apparently I've wasted my ****ing money. :rolleyes: And why does Texmod take so bloody long to open? Why the hell's it beta anyway? :confused: :mad:

I have no idea...

But do you need to play with the mod? :o

Well, I hope you sort it out, but I am off to bed, cya :wve: :)

That's the whole reason I bought it for PC. I see other people modding and playing TRA mods, yet I'm not able to. :(

It must be something to do with Vista. I'm no help with that I'm afraid, I don't have it myself. TexMod opens in an instant for me (or it did when I had it installed along with TRA).

If its anything like Legend, then I dunno.. cause I have Vista and Legend and it works fine for me :o

hmmm... are you sure that you installed it correctly?

This is the second version of TRA I have tried. :( And downloading Texmod of another site is also painfully slow. It ****ing slows down everything. :(

Disable DEP (http://www.tombraiderwiki.com/index.php/DEP) and try again.

If still any issues, run Diagnose.exe (http://www.tombraiderhub.com/download/diagnose.exe) and post the report.
