    well, if you've already downloaded the game. It then unpacks itself, then you install it.
    After that you should have an icon on the desktop.

    Okay , check C:\Programs Files\. Is the Perfect World Entertainment folder there? if not then it is not installed.

    After you unpack, double-click on the folder and then double click on the install. A new window should come up. Follow the screen instructions.

    Which operating system are you using by the way?

    hey thanks hydrocorsotine that worked. i think the problem thats making everyone messed up is that you DIDNT INSTALL IT. if you downloaded the NEWEST and FULL CLIENT on the front page of the website, it should show an icon on your desktop going to a folder it made for u... for me its " my documents". It will have a PERFECT WORLD FOLDER in it. go in it and click on the INSTALL icon. this is what u do to install the game, get the Perfect World icon , and then play! thanks hydro for the help lol. I hope this helps all the questions! =D
