------- Additional Comments From xerox_xerox2000@yahoo.co.uk 2007-02-06 08:10 ------- A last remark, I had a quick look at the debuglog from the installer. There's:
000b:Call KERNEL32.WritePrivateProfileStringA(00c92b40 "BlockLoading",00c922b0 "LoadFromResourceBlockFiles",00c926f8 "True", 00c92b88 "c:\Program Files\Thief - Deadly Shadows Demo\user.ini") ret=00a88757 000b:Ret KERNEL32.WritePrivateProfileStringA() retval=00000000 ret=00a88757
So WritePrivateProfileStringA fails miserably. So i guess that's where it goes wrong. Needs more investigation as to why this fails....
