But being slightly less patient this time around, I decided to do some random prodding of the system.Īfter cranking up the priority of the setup process (which frankly didn’t seem to do anything), I started clicking around in the Resource Monitor to see if setup was stuck on a particular resource. The setup.exe just sat there and it looked like I would have to wait a bit again. The Windows 7 PC has been replaced by a Windows 10 PC a couple of months back and I decided to dust off ye olde Caesar III again.Īnd lo, the same problem occurred during installation. (Note that you need to run set-up in compatibility mode.) After a minute of five or ten, out of the blue Installshield started running. So here’s the trick I used: I just waited a long time. Most people apparently happily installed their third Caesars on Vista and 7. I scoured the internet for solutions, but nothing gave. It would prepare for running Installshield, and then do nothing. Long story short, Caesar III refused to install. Until I cleaned out a cupboard and the found the game again. But I digress.Īnd lo, I bought a new PC which ran on Windows 7, and forgot all about Caesar III. Actually it wasn’t that long time ago, and it definitely was not far away. A long time ago in a land far, far away I had a game called Caesar III installed on Windows 98 (or XP).
