Could you please make a screenshot? (Press Print Screen button on your keyboard > paste from clipboard to MS Paint > Save as some .jpg > upload .jpg to forum)

What system and what edition do you run?

Actually, I remember when I patched DX to 1112fm, the installer would just become nonresponsive at end. The game was fully installed though.

Just kill the process through taskmanager and try to load up DX, it might just work as it did for me.

Can't you manually install DX by right clicking 'explore' on the disk and dragging all the files over to your PC?
Might not work on your edition but it worked on mine.

You could also install the version Sike recommended and then patch it up with the files from your disk.

Or you can install it to an external memory unit on a different PC, swap the unit to the PC you want DX on, copy and paste the files from the unit to your hard drive.


Good luck.

I have the SoldOut GOTY installer and it always does that to me. :\
I have to _sometimes_ extract the files manually.
