Hey guys, I can't get Ghostbusters to load at all. I bought it at D2D. It's not the problem every had where it would load then crash, I can't even install it. Looking for suggestions.
I've tried just about everything I can think of. Updating all drivers, I even upgraded to Windows 7 from Vista Home Premium. (not for the game, just happened to be at the right time)
Anyway, system specs:
2.66 Quad core
4g RAM
1 Tb HD
nVidia 680i SLI with
dual 9800GT's
Here's my issue. When I try and launch the .msi file, I get this error:
"This installation package could not be opened. Contact the application vendor to verify that this is a valid Windows Installer package."
When I try and launch the autorun file, I get this:
"16 bit MS-DOS Subsystem. The error says: C:\Users\DOWLO~1\GHOSTB~1\Autorun.exe The NTVDM CPU had encountered an illegal instruction. CS:0003 IP:14ff OP:8e 8f 90 92 92 Choose 'Close' to terminate the application.
The NTDVM error puzzles me, as I can't figure out why Virtual DOS machine would need to run the installer.
Anyway, I can't even install this program. It simply won't run. I've re-downloaded the game, and D2D's support tells me that there is nothing wrong with the installer, and that it works on Win7 just fine.
Any ideas before I just write this off as total wasted money? Tonight I will try and download it again, maybe 3rd times a charm?
