View Full Version : Game install problem

I'm trying to install Need for Speed: Underground on my computer and when I load the first CD to install, it goes to the first screen where it asks you to install, view the readme file, look for updates, etc.

However, the first option isn't "Install Game" or whatever it's supposed to be, but it's "Play Game." :wtf: I click play game and it tries to launch Need for Speed Most Wanted, which is what I have installed :wtf: x 2

So, naturally, I exit, uninstall NFSMW, and install NFSU and it goes smoothly and the game works fine. BUT, I go to install NFSMW and I get the exact same problem: the start screen for NFSMW doesn't have "Install Game," but it has "Play Game" and selecting "Play Game" launches NFSU :-\



Does EA not want me having both games at once or something? Anyone ever experience this? Anyone have a work-around? Thanks :wave:

P.S. Both games are downloaded versions, not retail :shifty:

PS Oh, so you come to TPWW when you've got problems with your computer, but when it's just posting "let's all go to Kapoutland", is it?

That's weird, I didn't have any problems. Try renaming the destination folder maybe?

I can't even get that far because the option for renaming the destination is after you press "Install Game" :-\

Well maybe could rename the folder of the game already installed, maybe that'll fix it

it would, but then you wont be able to uninstall one of them the conventional way of going to the control panel

that ist he method i use to have both Euro and US WoW installed at the same time
