I need a few things from you or I won't be able to help.

First, what perating system are you using?
If it is NT-based (2000, XP, NT ), you need to be Administrator in order to install vegastrike, or else put it inside your desktop (not pretty).

Next, what error did you get?

If it was something about "CRC check failed" or "corrupt"

Probably it is a corrupt download and you need to download it again.

If you don't want to have to download it again, get a program called md5sum.
There's one here: http://downloads.activestate.com/contri ... m/Windows/
I assume you downloaded to the desktop.
open up Start->run->command (win95/98/ME) or Start->run->cmd (2000/NT/XP) and
(in win95/98/me) do: cd \windows\desktop
(in 2k/xp/nt) do: cd \docume~1\<USERNAME>\desktop
md5sum vegastrike.0.3.9.1.exe
match that number to the number in the Files section. If it does not match any of them, your download is corrupt and you must redownload.

I can't help you any more than that unless you specifically tell me when it occurs and what it says.

the thing goes:
NSIS ERROR
installer verfection failed

this could be the result of incomplete download a failing disk ore (possibly) corruption from a virus.

you could try to force an install using the /NCRC command line swith (but this is not reccemended)

this is what it said and i downloaded it into c/: drive

ttry downlaoding it again--it doubtless was a download error possibly caused by using a download manager that resumes automatically
