Hey guys. For some reason Far Cry won't install on my Mac Pro (8800GT). I installed Crysis, COD4 and FSx and they run fine but not this game. Any ideas?
Got a tip for us?

Do you have enough virtual disk space, and are you doing this in Boot Camp or....? Your not really providing enough information to get an accurate diagnosis.
I partitioned Xp to have 150GB HD and I only used like 30GB. So space isn't the problem. Once I hit the install button, everything freezes except the exit button. No installation occurs.
To me it sounds like you have a faulty copy or something because I have seen no other person with any trouble installing Far Cry. Sorry I can be of no more help. Did you try the Apple forums? Or the Far Cry Forums looking for Mac users playing Far Cry? I think they would be in a better position to assist you.
Far Cry (with the latest update) runs perfectly well on my Mac Pro '08 with 8800 GT running on Vista x86 (= 32 bits). Haven't tried x64 yet. Will be doing so this week.
Have done this install from the original CD (v 1.1 IIRC), and updated it to the latest version after that.
