I don't have internet on my computer, but I do have the ability to connect with my MAC. I downloaded Back to the future and moved it to my computer using a transfer. I started the exe file, but no matter what I do, it can't locate part 2. What is going on? I am getting really frustrated, because I waited hours to play and I still can't get the thing installed. I hope someone can help me, because I know it has to be a simple answer.

Note: I downloaded all three parts, am I suppose to do something else. I have it all in the same folder.

I have windows 7 64 bit and plenty of memory and ram. Not that I am sure what I use, mind you.

Be sure to run the .exe as Administrator. A directory listing, or screenshot I suppose, would be useful to see.
I run it as Administrator and it just doesn't want to recognize that all three parts are listed. (-_-) I just don't know what the problem might be. But here is my folder with everything in the folder. I don't know if the name is wrong or what, but hopefully I can figure out what's going on. I mean, it a click and install. Should be easy only it just doesn't want to recognize part two is there.

The names look fine. Sometimes browsers are "helpful" and add a (1) & the like to the name. You can try disabling your anti-virus during the install and downloading part 2 again.
I've finished playing the game just last night, trust me those files are all there is to the game.

After you install the game, each 'episode' has it's own directory; This means they also have their own configuration (which is slightly annoying).

After installing, if the shortcuts aren't created on your desktop, go to Start->My Computer. Select your C drive, and find your GoG Games directory, inside you'll find your back to the future game. If you enter that you'll see all 5 episodes as separate directories (named and whatnot). From there you should be able to run the game.
Thanks. I did search, but however, it just doesn't seem to be installing. I almost wonder if it's a direct X problem or could I have to update certain things on my computer. Could that prevent installation? I mean, part two is in the folder and won't recognize it. Exactly how big is the file suppose to be? Mine is with everything is 2.2 GB.

If you didn't use the downloader, I recommend it for larger downloads, I've had few problems with it. Although I used MD5SUM as part of cygwin, HashTab will also calculate MD5 just fine.
