Install and Installer are two separate programs. Be sure you have both since some
programs call on one or the other. AND...

Check to be sure the protection bits are set right. When downloading things from the net,
often these get messed up. In other words, make sure the important and obvious
files (like WHDLoad itself) you are playing around with are all "executable". When
doing an 'info' on the file, be sure that option is checked.

Not sure why else you are having all this trouble installing a simple program.

Should just be able to throw that program into 'C', place your key in 'S' (yes, you
should register this) and be done with it. Maybe an assign in user-startup pointing
to WHDLoad, but come to think of it, not even sure that's necessary. Good luck!

No. whdownload.com already has "installed" games available for download. Simply double click on the games' icon and get ready for some serious fun!

The fact you can install a non-HD installable game using WHDLoad with your original disk is brilliant. That was the original design of the program. Was never meant to be a vehicle for piracy. OR am I being naive and was that feature just a clever disguise? lol  In any event, it was inevitable that most of these whdload games would pop up publicly for download before too long.
