Installing The Nameless Mod from the .exe

Post by Lucius DeBeers »

I sent the .exe to my desktop, I try to run it and I get two windows saying:
this file does not have a program associated with it for performing this action. create an association in the Folder Options control panel.

OK
then is says in another smaill window:
Unable to elevate, error 1155

OK
Is it supposed to be opened connected to deus ex? Perhaps it does not know I have deus ex installed?

Any help or Ideas would be appreciated.

What's your operating system? Have you checked that the file isn't corrupted in some way? Have you renamed the file?

Are you running it from an administrator's account? Try right clicking and Run as Administrator (assuming your user account has admin privaleges). What version of Windows are you using?

I also have a problem...I just got the .exe, did NOT work. It's 922 mb large but has no icon. It's loading forever, not showing up any install screen or anything. Tried with the .iso. The .exe inside is yet again 922MB large and iconless. When I select install, it does nothing, just loading and rendering the autorun nonresponsive. Windows XP Service Pack 3 (Official)

To be honest, I do not remember my administrator password...any other solution? Or must I reinstall Windows? I'd do anything to see this mod working! :(

So your account doesn't have admin privileges? If not that's going to be a problem, the installer needs the proper permissions to be able to do it's voodoo.

No, I mean my original account does have admin privileges. But you asked me to try run the app as "administrator". The administrator feature requires a password, which presumably doesn't exist. However, I do have full admin privileges, yet it doesn't work.

Now I have got it to install supposedly with the exe, but when I click on it to run, it says it can't locate "window.dll". I have DeusEx installed. I know the setup says to run deus ex once before starting up TNM, so whether I say ok to setup TNM, then after installing TNM completely I run deus ex; or canceling instead and then run deus ex and then finish installing TNM, it still wont work. gonna burn and try the iso.. so when exactly should I run deus ex? usually I can install stuff :/ ty for the help..

Run Deus Ex before you begin to install The Nameless Mod.

Also, the .iso uses the exact same .exe, it's just auto-executed, so try Jonas's thing first.

You tried the Run as Administrator thing? Are you running Vista or XP?
