Vista - Won't download SimCoaster!!!

Hi

So, I recently purchased a pack of six old sims games(called
SimMania 3). So far, I have dowloaded and played SimTheme Park and SimGolf
with no problems. But, today I tried to install SimCoaster and my computer
wouldn't even bring up the InstallShield Wizard page. At first a liitle
pop-up appeared saying that it "would't support download" or something. Now
when I click install it loads the InstallShield Wizard page, it appears for a
second and then it's gone with no explanation. Any ideas?

Thanks, Nadia

try running it as administrator, do this by right clicking and then pressing "run as administrator". If that doesnt work then try right clicking and going into properties and then click the compatability tab, then check the box under "run this program in compatability mode" and choose xp with sp2. Then try again (once again by clicking run as administrator). If that doesnt work then maybe try googling for an answer.

Bring up Computer
Right-Click on your C: drive and choose Properties.
Click Disk Cleanup.
Check all the boxes except for anything with Compress Files in it.
Click OK.
Restart/Reboot your computer when finished. Make sure it restarts and
doesn't just go to sleep.

Your systems temp folder sometimes gets weird locked files in it that
Installshield needs to work, Installshield will just crap out if it can't do
what it wants to do.

Try the installer again.

-A.

Installing a program is called just that installing.
Downloading is when a program is on the internet and you download it to your
PC.

So if InstallShield is saying won't support download then that's a first for
me.
I've never known InstallShield to have a download manager.

Is this a set of games on CD?
