vishnu_badlapur Yes; if it is trying to download parent rights, that is what the problem is. The file has to download something from the internet in order to play. You can't play it unless what it needs is provided. Even the formats have various versions. WMV too has some...

vishnu_badlapur There are couple of things that you can try. If you are not able to run the setup itself, 1. I think Vista only warns you against the installation. If this is the case, you can ignore the warning and continue installation. 2. Try to run it in compatibility...
