Could there be any stupider question? I've done it about 5 or 6 times and maybe wrecked my machine, but I don't think it's in there right.
System: Sony PC 1500MHz, 360+ram-- not enough, I know-- 15 G on the program HD, two more HDs at 60 and 70G. Running Windows ME. I have an older PC running 98 and I had no luck installing it there, not that I want to run it on a 450Mhz.
What happens is the Metacreation files never go away, and nothing works unless it is installed in Metacreation's Runtime files. I keep getting these errors of files being too recent a date for the program-- sounds to me like it's not updated, although it boots saying Curious Labs 4.03+. Am I supposed to have 2 Runtime sets of files??
The program shows up under the Curious Labs menu in Program files from the desktop but it's not there, it's still in the Metacreation's folder. Did I mention, I'd done this 6 times!!
At least I'm getting a crash course on what file goes where in Runtime. Poser doesn't recognize half of it, mind you, and I'm not sure if that's because what I have is faulty or the installation was.
Oh, one last thing, I installed it all from scratch. I just got a fresh set of disks from the company as I used it years ago on Mac.
I also don't seem to be able to uninstall the damn thing as the program can't find it's install log.
I'd be very grateful for some help, as I too would like to play around with naked dreamy-lit women and men in over-decorated temples. [don't say that, they'll let you sink]
Oh, and I'm talking to myself, I'm so frustrated.
