I've had this game for a year now, and it's always worked just fine. Then a couple of days ago it was flcikering while i was playing it so i decided to reinstall it. However, when I opened the Launcher and clciked Install X-Wing Alliance' nothing happened...the setup didnt come up!

I don't know ahst wrong...but i ahve a suspicion it may the DirectX related....the last time time i played it I had Direct X 9.0b now i have 9.0c.

hmm, im having a somewhat similar problem. I installed the game with the recent patch. But running it just crashes to my destkop. tried running with win98/me compatibility and no dice. very unfortunate as i like this game alot.
could it be an issue with windows xp pro SP2 along with directx 9b/c?
anyone else having the same problem? any fixes/workaround for this?

if anything, i guess i must install windows 98 on another partition to play this game haha. very annoying!
