Thanks for that. I got around that by renaming a file so the net player install doesn't start. Sadly I am having issues with run time error 3 when playing the game. I have an 8800gt with up to date drivers and have set my page file to 3gb but my system is a bit old and is creaking under the load a bit I think. I have an overclocked Opteron (@ 2.
with only 2gigs of system ram which Ic say is the minimum. I am searching around trying to find ways around this... I have it on Steam btw
