Have downloaded pc demo and have played it twice, but in order to play it I have to first uninstall then click on set up to reinstall it, this of course takes time, is there any way you can click on an icon and play the demo without all this effort.:scratch:

I have downloaded the demo, but I can't play it due to not having a powerful enough video card. But I am not sure why you feel the need to uninstall/reinstall the demo to play it. :scratch:
There is an icon that should have installed on your desktop. The most you have to do is set the settings again for things like shadowing? Also, surely if you can save the demo, all that will be done for the next time you play?
I could be wrong. As I say, I haven't even been able to play yet.

works for me. been running 64-bit vista for awhile.
if you have the GAMES tab in your start menu, there is a shortcut to the demo, by default after installing.

run the setup again, then, if you still have it on your computer. the zip file you download has all the files to run the install. whne you are finished installing it, try NOT REMOVING THE SETUP FILES. given its a demo that isn't on any disc, try leaving the file folder u get alone. it may be looking for those files, especially the Bigfile.000 wherever you left them at.
if you keep deleting the folder it makes with the setup files in it, that could be why u have to keep reinstalling it.

I wonder if someone could help me to install with clicking on the custom route instead of the standard route, maybe that will do it.:rolleyes:
