    hi all,
    I have a problem with Warbirds 2.77r3. I have downloaded it and started it but it doesn't install it just unpackes some files and then it ends. I have found the files in some temp directory copied them elsewhere. Then i have tried to start the setup.exe but with the same result, it did nothing !!! :confused:
    Could that be a problem with hardware or software (OS) ?

    Some of my PC specifications:
    Intel Pentium 4 1.6GHz (Northwood), GeForce 2 PRO 64MB DDR, RAM 256MB DDR PC2100, 2x40GB ATA133 HDD, OS Windows XP Professional and both disks formatted with NTFS filesystem. And in windows i'm using screen resolution of 1280x1024x32.

    Would anyone know how to help me ? :help:

    thanks

    To play on FH you must download:
    1. wb277r3full.exe (from here or from IEN)
    2. wb277r3upd.exe (only from here)
    3. FHLInstall.exe (only from here)
    Install it in 1-2-3 order.

    Did you try reboot computer?

    Try install under administrator rights.
    Try clear temporary folders (see TEMP and TMP variables, they point to temporary folders, you need clear all files in that folders).

    I errased the temp files with Unlocker since some of them were being used by some other app and I couldnt delete them. Now WB installed fine now I'm trying to look for the IP of TH or the server you guys are in.
    Thanks for your help!

    i had similar problem after formatting and installing new firewall and antivirus.
    after doubleclicking on wb install file nothing happened but in task manager there were 2 tasks running wowexec.exe (or smthing like that) and setup.exe.
    and this happened with other programs that use install method like wb.
    problem solved after closing firewall&antivirus for installation...... :cheers:
