Not sure which operating system platform the game was written for, Jason,
but try this:
- Put the game CD in your CD-ROM, don't let it start the install process by
holding down the shift key.
- Go to Start/Run and then click on the Browse button, going to the CD-ROM
drive and looking at the root on the CD. You'll find either install.exe or
setup.exe there. Right-click on it, and select Run As... then pick Win98.
- Come back out to the Run line, click OK. It should install in the Windows
98 compatibility mode.
- After it installs, patch it. Then right-click the link you'll use to run
the game, select Properties and then the Compatibility tab. Select to run
it in the Win98 mode.

Sorry, but I'm not quite sure what you're saying about the "download
install." If it is the update file Activision suggests, choose to download
it to your hard drive, not install it over the Internet. After the download
is complete, then do the update from the hard drive locally.
Of course, make sure your anti-virus software and all other open programs
you may have running are shut down.
