Hey all!

Ok, I'm running a pretty nice PC with Vista on it. I've tried to get COBL and the MOD Manager but I can't install either one. Vista is telling me that it doesn't recognize the files and/or that the access is denied. I'm the admin on my PC so I shouldn't be having any issues.

Can ANYONE give me some answers on this. I've never MOD'ed a game before and I really want to get the MOD's working.

Here are my PC stats:

AMD Tricore 9600
512 GDDR4 Radion Card
360 GIG HD
3 GIGs DDR2 RAM

Anything will hepl!

Thanks,
Azzoun

Have you tried right clicking on the file and click 'run as administrator'? It should help when it comes to installers.

lol...uh, nope! I'll try that and see what happens! Thanks for the tip, anything else?

Do you have any .zip/.rar/.7z uncompressor?
I experience that until now(Vista doesn't recognize MOD format): I don't have .7z uncompressor tool,
when I download a mod with that format (say, Akatosh Mount), Vista doesn't know it's format and suggest to look in the internet (address bar says Windows...can't remember-and my internet connection is too slow to download anything)
Ihave MOD Manager running with no problems right now.

I think you need to have a program that can uncompress the MOD you want, if you already had, then I apologize
