The 14 day trial

I just dl:ed the uogold free trial - eager to install it I doubleclick, wait for 5 mins before it finally comes around to start the unpacking - then it tells me I dont have enough space on drive C: (I chose to install it on my H: drive with 23 GB free space).

I tried three times and get the same result - "You dont have enough space on drive C: to continue installation..."

So basically if I dont have atleast 2 gigs free on my system drive (i have 1.3) I cant install the game???

Excuse me for saying: That sux!


Why the heck does it choose by default to be unpacked to the system drive?? I have my system on a smaller drive so it doesnt mess with anything (I never install stuff on that drive, it just has Windows on it).


Is there any way around this???

Re: The 14 day trial

Do you know anybody that has the game on CD to install directly off of? I don't know of any way to tell the compressed download file to unpack to a different drive. (I haven't heard of a way, anyway).

Did you try copying the compressed file to your H: drive, and then double clicking it to unpack it? Maybe it would unpack to whatever drive it is stored on. (For example, if you've got it on C: and are trying to unpack it with the intent to install to H:, maybe move the compressed file to H: and start the unpacking/installation from there).

You may have already tried that... just brainstorming...

Re: The 14 day trial

Tx for replying guys.
I have the file on a separate drive so its not on C: and Ive even tried burning the file and starting it from the CDdrive - same result.

Im from Sweden Tabbitha (played UO back in 98 but on a free shard for a few years). Wanted to see if I could get the good old UO-feeling back since its probably the game I liked the most as a whole.

Well anyway I hope someone can help me out with my problem.

Re: The 14 day trial

Tx for replying you two

Im a swede to answer that question. Played UO back in 98 (was on a free shard for a couple of years, only bad thing was they closed it so everyone lost everything =p)

Anyway Im thinking a bit about returning to the fun times with UO so it was a bit disappointing to run into this lil problem Im having.

Ive even tried burning the file and still its the same thing.

Any technocrat out there that can solve it?
