    Hawk, do you have permission to alter the Program Files directory?

    If you're using Windows Vista, right-click the install.exe file, and click Run As Administrator.

    They should contact you through your account's registered e-mail address fairly soon; if you're using Hotmail, AOL, or Comcast, please be sure to check your spam folder.

    Apologies for assuming relative inexperience with computers, but it's easiest to start from that level and move upwards without more detailed information. Are you running any other program that reads as an installation wizard of any type, or on a user account without permissio to install?

    Try one of the different download links here: http://www.perfectworld.com/download/client

    You can use http://www.utorrent.com to download the Bittorrent link.

    See if that will work for you.

    If you're running Windows XP, please install East Asian language support. If that does not resolve the issue, please upgrade your display drivers.

    I ran into a problem with the download client that I was wondering if the download sever stops at some point. I was downloading this at 1mb/sec.

    From where did you do the download? The website here? Try one of the mirrorsite gamershell seems to work quite well.

    i'm kinda new to the whole online gaming thing but this looks like something fun so i download it.

    it takes like 6 hours to download but i'm thinkin it should be worth it

    the download ends and it opens a folder(not a zip) called downloads with an icon of a blank internet browser window with a little refresh symbol in the corner of it
    the file is called perfect_world_international.exe
    i deleted the underscores, i try and open in and it says its not a valid win32 app

    you seem to be the L mastermind of support and i'm really hoping you can help me

    thanks xxx

    I have a sinking feeling running Perfect World on my particular computer is impossible, but here goes nothing: Whenever I try to run the Perfect World International exe, my computer comes up with a window stating that I don't have the appropriate permissions to access the item. Well, I've tried to make it so I have special permissions, but here's the catch: I "own" a school-issued laptop. (Well, I can own it if I pay a fee after graduation) Anyway, I don't know if there's any way I can get special Administrator permissions, but for now that special permissions box remains unchecked and "gray" (can't change it). Is there any way to bypass it?
