When I try to run setup.exe in the W:A CD, the taskbar and any windows and desktop icons disappear for a few seconds, reappear, and nothing happens after that. The same thing happens when I run install.exe in the Install directory. What could be wrong?

Windows XP Home Dutch version, SP1
AMD Athlon 64 3000+
512MB RAM
ATI All-In-Wonder Radeon 9800
DirectX 9.0b

Any help is appreciated.

Check disk for scratches and/or dirt. Remove those if possible, or put the CD through a cleaner if you have one. If it still doesn't work, don't buy a new CD just yet; see what other people have to say.

Does the CD work on other computers? If it does, then it's not the CD. That helps narrow it down.

Thanks for your replies, but I was able to get it to work. Now I just can't log into WormNet... Thanks again.
