Installing

JoeRockEHFPosted on 06/25/03 at 16:51:07

Hey there guys. I just downloaded the trial version and unzipped the program. I then installed the game. Then what though? I see another zip file but when I go to unzip that it says invalid file. The only thing to run is the same thing I clicked on to run the installation. Any help? I have a Dell Windows XP laptop. Thanks to all!

By default, your TNM 7 trial version was installed to C:\TNM.

If you go into the Windows Explorer and navigate to C:\TNM, there will be a file named TNM.BAT which is what you need to run.

Ok, I don't find that file anywhere. Here's what I did. I downloaded the trial version to My Documents. I then unzipped it into the My Documents folder. That contained the DOS program for installation. I ran that and installed it to C:\tnm7. No files showed up in that folder but the following files showed up in My Documents: a zip file that is 2.9 MB but says invalid when I try to open it, tpcopy.1, tpcopy.10, tpcopy.2, tpcopy.9, and a folder named Files. In that folder are some more files and a folder called Data that has a few more files. I see nothing else to run. Hope I've been as clear as possible. Any solution?

Please click Windows' Start button on the lower left-hand side of the screen.

Then click "Run".

Enter the following:

c:\tnm7\tnm7.bat

Hit RETURN twice... it should start.

Nope, tried it already and just tried again. Still no go. Says Windows cannot find. I deleted everything and downloaded the trial again new and same problem happened.

Could you please give me your e-mail address ? I'll send you a pre-installed copy zipped up.

JoeRockEHF@aol.com. Thanks for all the help.

Still having problems Oliver. I emailed ya about it.

Sorry for that... you got a "you turned back the time message". Obviously, since I installed the program for you, it noted when I exited the program.

I live in the Central European Time Zone where it is at least six hours later than where you are. Hence, you'd have to wait six hours for it to work.

Good and bad news Oliver. Good news: The file works and it hasn't crashed yet. Bad news: The first screen that pops up says my trial version time is up and I have to order to continue. Thats cool though. I've seen a friend play before and I used his also at one time and think this program is very good so I was planning on ordering anyway. Thanks for all the help!

Wait, I'm sending you a four-week trial extension file.

Guess I jumped the gun. I ordered it right after I posted my last message. Put in the registration and everything works! Thanks for all the help though. Great service is a great quality to have. Thanks again!

Sorry, you were too quick for me *g*

Service is also important to me but to be honest until two to three months ago, due to time constraints I couldn't offer the kind of service I'm offering again at this point.

Thanks for your order !
