    and please don't laugh at me :p

    Anyway, I came to this forum when I was researching laptops.. I ended up with the Asus G71. I've never been a gamer really, but all the talk about Crysis, Crysis, Crysis in the G71 thread got me curious, so tonight I downloaded a Crysis demo from their website. The thing is... I can't find how to open it :eek: It's been installed, but when I go to start>programs, it's not there. There's no icon on the desktop, and it doesn't even show up when I use search..although if I look in program files, it's there in it's folder. I am really fricking confused. Have I done something wrong, installed it wrong or something? I was looking forward to trying it out :/

    Try opening your 'computer' folder and search for Crysis

    Start the install again, and see where you saved it and exit before install.

    Do you have Vista? If you do, check the "Games" folder. It might be in there.

    Hope this helps!

    Thanks guys, I got it sorted out :) That was interesting.... I have to go out right now, but I'm going to play again when I come back, although I think something like GTA might be more my speed.
