Setup error: "Out of memory"
Posted: Wed Jul 29, 2015 7:10 am
So I'm trying to install the WoW client. The problem is, the installer fails.
I start the installer, go on to choose a folder and desktop icon etc. Then I click "install" to begin the process. It waits a few seconds and then gives me an error: "Out of memory."
That's all it says. This confuses me as I have a lot of memory in my computer. I opened up task manager and took a look at the memory used by the installer. I had 8GB of physical memory free. I click "install" again and look at the task manager. The installer ticks up to 121MB and then I get the error. There is still ~7.9 GB free memory. So I cannot understand why I get this error.
I have 128GB free space on my hard drive, so that cannot be the error either.
I tried both downloads listed here: viewtopic.php?f=6&t=638
They both fail with the exact same error.
I tried looking around on this forum and other places but was unable to find any help.
Any ideas would be appreciated
