Won't even start install on XP
Hey I just bought Alpha Centauri and the Expansion out of a bundle of games taht you can play on your laptop. I am running windows XP and whenever I click on Install Alpha Centauri it freezes up for a little while and the process just ends without out any error message or anything. Anyone know the solution to my problem?

Was it a user error or does something need to be done? I am thinking of getting this again and I have XP PRO.

It runs fine on my XP Pro boxen.
It installed without a problem too. I'm not sure if I was just lucky though.

Yeah it seems hit and miss. I had all my games working on an AMD XP PRO. I then got hyperhtreading system last year and now a number of them no longer will run.
I have a Win98SE for those, just in case.

That's Windows for you. Did you know they made versions of SMAC+X for Mac and Linux?
