Vista - Delta Force Black Hawk Down

When I try to load the game it gets to about 94 to 95% and stops. Has anybody
else had this happen to them? What can I do to fix the problem?

I think you need to give it admin rights to install correctly as it installs
Punkbuster which has to have admin rights. You will need to give it admin
rights to play online too for the same reason.

How do I do that?

Right click the shortcut file to the game and select run as administrator.
You can also right click the shortcut file and select properties and there
you will see an option to make it run with admin rights permanently so you
don't have to select run with administrator rights every time.

I guess I worded that wrong. I can't install the game to my HD.

Right click the setup.exe on the cd and set that to compatibility mode for
XP and give it admin rights. Not saying it will work for sure but might.
