Can't run demo mode

raymond6751 · 07-24-09, 05:46 AM

I downloaded and installed. According to the docs, Ishould be asked for my email and get an ID to then play the game in eval mode. I don't get asked for my email and hence, cannot play at all.

Help.

And what is currently happening when you start the game?

You have clicked Evaluate and nothing happens?

Welcome aboard, Raymond

Anyway, several things might be causing you a problem here. First off, you need to run the game as an administrator so you can OK it using the internet. Make sure the game is in a window, so if any security warnings come up, you can see and deal with them.

Then you should see a white screen with various green buttons on it. You want the button that says Evaluate, which IIRC is the bottom one. When you hit that, you should get a screen asking for your email address and such.

If none of this works, please be more specific about what's happening so we can try to figure it out.
