howdy folks,

as the title says bladerunner wont install for me. picked the game up for a whole 99p!! but when i try to install the game i get an error message saying,

"\??\D:\setup\setup.exe cannot start or run due to incompatibility with 64 bit versions of windows"

any idea how to get the game to install?
 
tried the compatability mode? maybe a VM? Sometimes google throws up some answers as i have had issues with LBA/Grim Fandango.
 
I think there were alternate endings if I remember correctly.

My dog got blown up, but I got the girl in mine.
 
cheers for the replies fellas, tried windows 2000 compatability but not joy and i'm afraid i couldnt make head nor tail out of VirtualBox!!

loved this game. Massive fan of the film (directors cut if u aint seen it). The game has 13 endings from memory. I only ever finished it once, i have never been great at replaying games.

I have virtual machine on my other PC, old p4 running XP. Stuck it on to get the myst series to work, 5 games only got halfway through the 3rd then i bought this pc and can't go back.

VM can be a bit fidly it's trial and error sometimes to get old games to work but i have allways managed to eventually.

Ah right ok, i'll perservere with a VM and see how i get on. would love to play this gem of a game, vaguely remember playing a bit of it way back but wasn't really into gaming back then. but everyone speaks very highly of it. i'll have to try and find a walkthrough for setting up a vm to run it as i can hardly make head nor tale when i install one!! lol
 
The setup file is probably a 16bit executable which means you can't run it on a 64bit OS. If you have access to a 32bit windows you can install it on a VM and run it from there.

Personally I use VMWare Player since it is free to run the VM. To create the actual VM I've used EasyVMX
