It was WinXP64 but it's Win7 now.

It will only ask that if it's actually going to replace any dll's if its adding new ones it will just add them.ohhh, well that explains what i was seeing. there shouldn't be any problem then, i'll install it right now.

no special directions or anything? just wondering because when i first went to install it, i noticed the progress bar was downloading some dll files, and i had thought it was going to ask me first before it did that (to which i would promptly respond YES to NOT override any of my system 32 dlls). when that happened i cancelled the install and made this thread to make sure i hadn't missed something.
perhaps i simply misread what it was doing, preparing the files perhaps?
thanks for the response btw, i'm sorry that i'm such a noob at the back end stuff XD

i was just wondering if installing the game using XP is different from when using Win7 or Vista. i'm not exactly the most tech savvy person out there, so i kinda wanted to make sure i was doing it right before i screwed up XD
thanks for the help, i can't wait to play this game!
Loading on XP is a lot easier than Win7/Vista. No UAC to dork around with.
