Prototype doesn't install correctly? Hi!
I'm running Windows 7 Build 7100- Prototype says that it installed correctly, but whenever I press the Play button, it just closes and nothing happens. I ran all the files in the CD in Compatability mode for Vista (Service Pack 3), installed and then removed it twice, and restarted after each- nothing happens, still. The game itself apparently isn't installed correctly- under the Games list, there's only a shortcut that doesn't work. However, I tried installing it a third time, putting every application in the CD folder under compatability mode for Vista SP3, but still nothing.
Is there some fancy thing I have to do to install it correctly? | My System Specs |

while it's uninstalled. delete any registry keys that i made. you can use CC Cleaner or do it manually. then try installing it again. other than that, idk... the game has A LOT of bugs so you might have to wait for a patch.

I never had a bit of a problem with playing Prototype. Everything runs perfect for me and installation was a piece of cake. And how does that game have a lot of bugs? | My System Specs | | |
