Error: can't install Graal

emandemon · #1 08-13-2010, 04:54 AM

Everytime I try to Install Graal Online I get an error "Was not able to start Graal.exe!"

Any solution?

Feel free to tell us what your computer specs are so we can try to figure out the problem.
If you don't know how just open start, run then type dxdiag

OS: Windows 7
RAM: 2GB
GFX Card: HD 4850
CPU: AMD Athlon II X2 245

blah blah blah...

Yes I did run the setup as adminstrator.

When does the error occur? Immediately upon opening GraalSetup.exe or after you click "Install"?

emandemon · #5 08-13-2010, 05:06 AM

After I click Install.

Have you tried installing Graal to another location other than default? Try extracting everything to your desktop and launching it.

cbk1994 · #7 08-13-2010, 05:53 AM

What location are you trying to install it to?

Put it in it's own folder and rename GraalSetup.exe to Graal.exe, it should generate the folders itself.

also runnng as Admin may help I've had to do that with Windows 7.

Shouldn't have to do that.

Have you installed Graal before then deleting it manually?

sssssssssss · #14 08-13-2010, 06:05 PM

Used to happen to me waaay back in the day. At least when it happened to me, it was because I wasent hitting the "install" button with the correct file path where the setup.exe file was actually located at.

I hate you all for stealing my solution.

Error? Or a blessing?

emandemon · #17 08-13-2010, 11:08 PM

I have tried 6 different locations to install it to, I still get the same error, I allowed it through the firewall (didn't work still), I used compatibility (didn't work), I am running out of ideas!
