Is your computer running Windows Vista?

I am also having the same problem. After I agree to the eula or whatever
terms, winrar pops up with three icons. one that's just ... another that says
images and one more called launcher. when i click on ther launcher icon an
internet explorer screen pops up with info abou the zoo tycoon website, a big
play button, and dino whatever download. when i click on the play button,
nothing happens, even after i turned off the activex control. when i click
the icon on my desktop nothing happens either. I've been reading up on this
for hours please help me, nothing is working. I'm using xp not vista.

I have Vista and have just bought the game. there is no icon on my desktop
and nothing in the programmes list. When I go to download an update. It does
it fine then goes to intall and says that Zoo Tycoon 2 is not installed and
yet I have done it 3 times. I can play the game from the disc only. Also when
I play one of the Scenarios, one of the troubles zoos ones, I have 4 exhibits
that I need to restore. No matter what I do I always end up with one of the
animals dying even though they are all in perfect health. There does not seem
to be a way out. Can anyone help with any of this. As the system does not see
that I have installed the game I will not be able to buy any expansions which
is really frustrating.
