Hi,
i wanted to install A@H in my office, 'cause there is is a lot of spare CPU-time, but i don't have the permission to write the DU.scr to the Windows folder. Is there any possibility to install the software anyway? masterimp (at) centrum (dot) cz |

UD.scr is necessary to run in 'Screensaver-only' mode. Otherwise it is not needed.

There are a few other files that go into the 'system32' folder aswell, which might cause you a problem.
However, you can try the following. 1) Open windows explorer and go to C:\Documents and Settings\***YOUR USER ACCOUNT***\Local Settings\Temp 2) Run WorldCommunityGridAgent.exe setup package. 3) After the 'Welcome' window pops up, look in the folder you opened in step 1, and you'll see a new folder. (Something like WZSE0.TMP but i believe it can vary.) 4) Copy this folder to your desktop and quit the installation. 5) Open the new folder on your desktop 6) Click Start > Run, Clear anything that maybe there in the textbox and type msiexec /a 7) Drag the file UDagent.msi in to the run text box and click OK 8) Click next in the first window and in the second enter C:\WCG\Program Files\WorldCommunityGrid\ (You can use any folder instead of WCG, BUT make sure you keep the \Program Files\WorldCommunityGrid\ bit at the end otherwise you'll end up with files everywhere ) 9) Click Next, Next, Finish. 10) Go to C:\WCG\Program Files\WorldCommunityGrid and run UD.EXE Just a word of warning, a number of companies won't be too happy if you do this without permission, so it maybe worth checking first.
