The same way you would install it with any other Windows platform. I'm running XP Home and have no problems with UQM outside of existing bugs that are common to all platforms, and in fact a part of the code itself. So no.

You're going to have to be a bit more specific than "content directory" to get help in this regard. Could you maybe copy down the error message? (start UQM from DOS so the window doesn't close)

I'm sure I know what error you're experiencing but it's better to check first.

If this is a new install just run the installer, and make sure that the game data box is checked, and then let the installer download the data.

Ok, I thought it will work but no...

Now I have opelGL video card and still the sound is messed up. I assume it is because of the OS (windows xp) because it didn't have any problems. So.....

Anyone can figure out why the sound is messed up? Do I need to upgrade anything else to use it on XP Pro?

Thank you.
