Zeus will not install. I insert the disc, dialog box pops up, I click autorun, Zeus menu appears, I click install and nothing happens. I have searched everywhere & followed countless fruitless instructions & still cannot install the game. And yes, I walked away for 2 hours & still no action although like everyone else taskmanager shows that set up is running.
Any help, including "fruitless" help is greatly appreciate.
Emperor installed just fine & runs with no hitches. Can't find my Caesar nor Nile games

As far as I understand your question, every thing is run from the CD...can't install otherwise

Yes'em, done that & it didn't work...as an aside, Poseidon is recognized & does attempt to install but can't because it can't find Zeus...I hate purchasing a game I already own...lol

Hi samgandy,
I've had a similar problem in the past when another piece of software had apparently declared itself the owner of my optical disc drive. I resolved it in the short term by creating a folder on my C: drive, copying the full contents of the CD into it, and running the installation from there.
It wasn't one of the Sierra citybuilders, but it might be worth a try.

Hey Branais: Sorry for the delay...it's a no go...it's not the optic drive, it's the setup32 that is stalling out & I can't figure out how to make it respond once install is click...thanks for tip though
