Installation Problem

[unmerged(25313)]

I bought this game about 2 days ago and my computer meets all of the recommended requirements. However when I try to install the game it will try to go through the setup process but ends up freezing. If I try to install it by going to Run it will get about halfway through the setup process before giving me this message:
C:\Program Files\Common Files\InstallShield\engine\6\Intel32\iKernel.exe The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect.
I looked for that file and I have it so I'm stumped as to what that means.

Well that is an install shield error and not part of the Paradox coding.

The closest thing I could find is this:

Check the second part about the CD driver.

Thanks, nothing was wrong with my cd drive so I just went into a different account and installed it, i think. Yesterday I downloaded patch 1.2 and tryed to install it but I got a message saying I can't do that because the game isn't installed on my computer. Now I can go into the game and play it so I know its installed. Is there anything I can do about this?

Okay, so you were trying to install it with an account that did not have Admin priveldeges. Make sure you install the patch with the same account. ie the one with the Admin priveldeges.
