Just go to the Sirtech site and follow the lead - the forum recommends you use the first of the two sites (a corrupt file was found on the other), and the closest server to you (choice of Indiana, NY, and Virginia). I started download an hour ago on my basic 56K - getting 3.8 kps - 9 hours 12 mins to go, 13% downloaded, 18.7 of 142 MB
 . Hope I get the download before you finish the whole demo .------------------  Ironworks Revolutionary Splitter wannabe Founding Member, and General Demands Adviser of the O.R.T. |

Just started downloading it on my DSL. If it doesn't finish by the time I need to go back to work, I'll get it when I come home. Thank the gods for DSL!

Just finished downloading
- got up this morning and there was only 10 mins left to go. Have installed, get the first two Sirtech things come up, then hang  . Hope it's just the drivers - off to update them. Please don't tell me the DL file is corrupt (grrr).------------------ Ironworks Revolutionary Splitter wannabe Founding Member, and General Demands Adviser of the O.R.T. |

Love the signature Pangur Ban
,Download of 142 MB all secure - program installed . Start up, see promo, load game - sure, then just when it's coming up it spits me to Windows . Started downloading lastest video driver, but it's 6 MB (hah, tiny by comparison I know) and I am out of time. I have to go to work (sigh!!!!!!!). MUST get this to work tonight!!!!!!------------------ Ironworks Revolutionary Splitter wannabe Founding Member, and General Demands Adviser of the O.R.T. |

The demo looks GREAT. I was able to figure out most of the interface very quickly. Combat runs smoothly. I'm still having to use keyboard for movement (maybe that's the way it's supposed to be) but can use right-click to "look" around with mouse. The graphics are STUNNING. Man, now I can't wait for Nov 15!

Hiya Everyone!
Hey, Davros, I have a 56k modem too. I tried to DL the demo overnight but got booted at 72% while I was sleeping. I have resumability so I started again when I got home from school. All done with the download but I have to refrain from setting it up to insure I'll get my shopping and housework done today! I'm dyin'! I have a busy schedule for the weekend too! ------------------  The best thing about karma is that you create your own. Pets Need Love Too |

Ha ha - latest video driver did not fix my problem - still got ooted back to windows at game load. Theeeeeeen
, I looked at my version of DirectX - been so long since I installed a game (ie since W&W), so I was running version 7 - oh bother and befusucate these dwarves - umm, so after 8 more megs of download, we at last have :SUCCESS .It runs smoothly, although I have only tested on lowest graphics resolution. Decided to RTFM before I get too far though. Enjoy everyone  ------------------ Ironworks Revolutionary Splitter wannabe Founding Member, and General Demands Adviser of the O.R.T. |
