Hey all,
So I updated my computer to Windows 10 from 7.1 on a clean update, and I've been busily reinstalling software that I actually use. But for the life of me it's been impossible to get CivII to install. I've tried running both from the autoplay and the setup.exe directly, in administrator mode and in a variety of compatibility modes, and making sure other programs are off. Nothing seems to work. Checking the task manager I can see that they are running, and occasionally I'll hear the fans spinning up. But I'm never able to get further than the blue circle next to my cursor running for a few seconds before nothing.
I'm running Windows 10 Pro 64-bit, and I can confirm it's the MGE, not vanilla, so that shouldn't be an issue. I also know that this is a better fit for the technical help subforum and I apologize, but the general discussion is much more active.
