    Sudeki Vista Problems

    We were having a Windows XP computer earlier when we bought Sudeki game and were able to play it fine without any problem. Recently I upgraded my system to Windows Vista, everything went fine but the only problem now is with the Sudeki game. I am not able to play it on Vista any how. When I try installing the setup begins and starts extracting certain MSI files. But just after few seconds Setup quits without any error.

    Probably this is due to Compatibility issues I guess. But is there any fix for the same? Please help.

    Hello Cris. Just try out the following two things.

    Right click the Sudeki installer and select RUN as Administrator. Many times the programs needs Administrator privileges to behave normal in Vista because of UAC implementation.

    Secondly, right click the setup, select Properties. Go to Compatibility Tab and run the setup in Windows XP SP3 compatibility mode.

    See if it works.

    Yeah, thats correct. It is because of Administrator privileges. By default the Administrator account in Vista is not active, hence it wont show up. In order to activate the same and have it appear do the following exactly:
    • Go to the 'START' menu
    • At the bottom of the Start menu in the 'START SEACH' box type "Cmd".
    • Press "CTRL-SHIFT-ENTER"
    • When the upgrade rights textbox appears upgrade except the upgraded permissions. That will bring up a CMD box.
    • Type "Net User Administrator /active:Yes" and press "ENTER"
    • Log out of your User Account and log in the Administrator Account.
    • Once your installation is completed be sure to deactivate the Administrator account again by following the same procedure except substitute "Net User Administrator /active:No"


    Hope that helps.

    To install Sudeki in Windows Vista just follow these instructions:

    1. Extract the CAB-files "Sudeki.cab" and "Sudeki1.cab" to a directory like "C:\Sudeki-Install".
    You can use WinZip or WinRAR to do so.
    2. Copy the *.bat into the directory created in step 1.
    3. Run "installer.bat" from commandline using a parameter to specify the target directory.
    i.e. installer.bat "C:\Games\Sudeki"
    4. The english game is now installed. To make it german, repeat step 3 with "make_german.bat".
    5. Delete the directory created in step 1. Unused language files still reside in it.

    Have fun.

    Batchfiles can be downloaded here...
