See? He actually tells you what's wrong.
Try to re-download and choose a non-user-related folder to unpack and install the game.

ttre208 Im trying to install it on my computer running xp. Just a few days i downloaded it off this site and installed it on my win98 laptop. I've gotten this to work before on my computer before(like other old games, quake, doom, wolf3d,etc), but i cannot rember how i did it. :wallbash: Now when I try to install it it says

Cannot find file COCUME~1\(My User Name)\Desktop\Sim Tower\SETUP.EXE(or one of its components). Check to ensure the path and filename are correct and that all required libaries are available.

I've done all the compatibility modes , re-downloaded, and re-booted. Nothing seems to work. Any ideas?

This has got nothing to do with SimTower actually.
Did you ever have Norton or Symantec programs installed? Even if you uninstall them, there is still some data and some drivers or other data (dlls) that is related to Symantec/Norton. They are very persistent.

I recommend you download Toni Arts' Easy Cleaner or CrapCleaner and do a registry cleanup (if you have no clue what I'm talking about, you'll see what I mean, when you installed that program ).

OK, that's the feedback we need. k:
But that makes me still wonder why so many people have problems.

No there's just Yoot Tower.
IMO it sucks.
Sim Tower is really cool since it something quite innovative. I still spend hours of time creating towers.
But that' goes for almost every SIM game (I never dound sim earth and sim life too cool...)

To topic:
I think we have to do something about the Sim Tower data.
I owe the original three floppies. Shouldn't we be able to host those in a way so the game can be properly installed?

Anno The game works in Win 3.11 in DOSBox (don't expect much speed though)
