Hey guys! I'm new here and was wondering if anyone could help me out. I uninstalled Renegade from my computer some time ago and now when I am unable to reinstall it. The installation starts and before anything comes up on the screen the installation prog minimizes and stays in my taskbar. If I try to open it it flashes black and then minimizes again.

I had a look through these forums before posting and I read something about it not installing if I don't have the correct codecs to play the video or something along those lines. If so, what do I need and where can I get them? I also read something about TweakXP causing problems with installation...I definitely had that on my computer but I uninstalled it and all registry keys etc.

I'm having the same trouble installing RA2 and YR so it's likely to be a problem with my system rather than with renegade.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Smile

Try using alt-tab to get into it. Does it still minimise then? Also try right clicking on the program in the taskbar and maximise/minimise to check if this does help. Strange problem...

You can find me in The KOSs2 (TK2) discord while I'm playing. Feel free to come and say hi! TK2 discord

Thanks for the replies. I'm pretty certain there's no spyware etc. on this machine.

I tried using Alt-Tab and right clicking the installation prog but no results Sad

EDIT: OK after I left the installation prog minimised for a while and then maximised it, it worked and I can now see the installation screen. Very strange...but it works. Thanks for all your help guys Smile
