Stalling installation

[TvFootball]

Hey I have some trouble. When I try to install EB the installation process deosnt show up no matter how much I wait. It just keeps loading. I tried deleting it to download again after I did but the page just turns into not responding. I have already installed EB once but I deleted it. I really want to play it again. Please help me. Thanks.

Is there any protections-software running in the background that might lock the process? Did you check in the task-manager (ctrl+shift+esc) if there is a EB thingy showed?

From which source did you get the file? Could be a corrupted installer, try torrent!

I have microssoft secruity. I got a virus on my computer and needed a porfesstional to remove it. He did and gave me microsft secruity. And i dowloaded the file from the link in the europa barbarorum website. It was file front. And when i did the task manager EB wasnt there... Thanks for helping I really want to play.

I had the patch downloaded also. It worked but the full europa barbarorum didnt. I was able to delete that but not the other one. I want to know how I can install it or delete it to try downloading from another link.

The thread title should have been "stalling installation". My bad.

If the patch works the 1.1 installer will also.
How much time does the 1.2 patch need to load? Multiply this by 10-15 and wait this amount of time, depending on your RAM it can take up to 20 minutes...
Please post back if waiting didn't helped you!

I waited 20 minutes and the run or cancel thingy popped up. Finally! I was excited but I pressed run and waited 15 more minutes and the pick your language thing to start the installation still didnt pop up. Is everything running correctly? Do I have to give it more time? And the first time I downloaded this it installed right away no problem. Does RAM change that much after 2 months?

[XSamatan]

No, RAM doesn't change, but disabling UAC and the mentioned security software during the installation would be my next guess. Cleaning your HD from crap (i.e. with CCleaner) and/or defragment can help too. The installer is loaded into a temporal folder of Windows, so if you HD is nearly full, this could also be a factor to increase the loading time.

Hey I tried all of that and it still deosnt work...

[XSamatan]

Please try another download but this time not from FileFront, use either the torrent link or the one that points to our ftp.
How much free space do you have on C:\ ?

Thank you God and XSamatan for the help it finally worked. I apprecitate it. :)

[XSamatan]

Did you re-download the installer from another source yet?

[TvFootball]

No I didnt have to. After I pressed run or cancel I waited 2 hours before the installation process finally began. Then I downloaded the patch and installed that. I dont know why it took so long I have at least 4 GB RAM.

[XSamatan]

Simply WOW....but good that it has finally worked for you! Don't forget to apply the fixes for 1.2 (see my signature). What speed do you receive in-game?
