TBP 3_4b keeps not responding
Hi I have recently downloaded this 5 times and get the same effect. As I try to install the game from the installer the installer window turns to a milky white and in the top of the window it says this program not responding
Now my system specs are a Dell inspiron 1501 with vista and more than enough ram and speed to run this program.
DON'T go full retard

If it's the installer version just let it go for awhile.  It has to unpack a 1.3gig file which doesn't update the status bar until it's done.

Not sure but I've seen windows say not responding before on programs that take awhile to respond.  Just let it go for about 15 minutes when you have time.

It loaded up. My comp was over heating so thats why it took a bit.You see what hardware came on this machine I stripped and overhauled it so she runs hot ever one in a while. Im currently down loading the rest of the missions and such and if this old man can figue it out you might see me in multi-player

You should also disable your anti-virus (snooze it, depending on how yours works), sometimes it doesn't like unpacking large files.

remember that there is Drums of War 3 now AND that Operations is outdated (although the newer version available in the download thread isn't perfectly working either.
