Installer Won't Run

Hey guys, I am fairly new to this program and how it works. I've been attempting to install a game, and it isn't supported at this point so I have been following this walkthrough:

http://www.codeweavers.com/support/wiki/mac/mactutorial/unsupported_install_file

I selected my file, chose the bottle, and hit install and it did its routine. However, the walkthrough says that "If all goes well the Windows installer for your program will appear. Follow the installation steps as you would on a Windows machine. It's usually best to leave everything at the defaults." This isn't happening for me...nothing really happens after Crossover finishes the basic install.

Any help would be appreciated.

It is hard to know what game we are talking about. You see, if we knew the game we could look up its requirements, therefore having a better idea of what is going on, and perhaps deduce what steps are to be taken.

You can also try to produce a debug log for the installer, the basics for this are on this page. Essentially, you choose the bottle you want this game in, and for the command, you browse to the installer executable. That might yield some information that will leed us to the solution. If you post the log, please put it between "code" bracket, that you can generate with the button of the same name.
