    For some reason when I try and install the GRID demo I keep getting the same ".dll" error, has this happened to anyone else?

    That's all the error says ?
    Try redownloading.... it's probably a bad (corrupt) download.

    "Unhandled Exception
    Error Number 0x80040702
    Failed to load DLL: Dsetup

    Setup will now terminate. "

    I'm using DX10 and I'm running vista. I had it installed and working once, then deleted it. The errors started once I starting re-installing.

    Note this is the demo not the full version.

    What's the name of the file ?
    Anyway, I still suggest you redownload from a good source... It feels like that's a corrupt file.
