Grumpy Dwarf

So after spending all day reinstalling Windows on my PC, I went to install AutoAssault only to find that the install media is a DVD. My PC only has a CD-RW drive. Bother! Fortunately I was able to plug in the external DVD-ROM that I use with my Mac and install from there. After installing (& rebooting, welcome to Windows) I went to play the game, forgetting of course that you have to patch the life out of it before you can play it. Currently it is downloading a 313Mb file, has been going for 25minutes and has an estimated 48minutes to go. Arghhh!
