Well... i activated Auto Start. Then it started up to a Point where i could choose the Language. I clicked Deutsch (German) and in the same moment the Window closed and nothing happened anymore. It doesnt Auto Start anymore and it cant be started manually. Well.....im speechless :-(

It seems that something is blocking Panzer Corps getting installed.
Where did you found that log txt file?
Also do you know how to start your Windows in safe mode?

I found it at C:\Windows. What should be blocking the install? I tried to turn off the Firewall - same ****. I downloaded Installation File from Matrix Games - same ****. Im getting desperate, never experienced something similiar.

Edit: i know how to start in safe Mode (hit F8 while booting, no?)

Copy PanzerCorpsWehrmacht-SetupRelease-v103.exe from the CD to your hardisk.
Start in Windows safe mode (F8 at the start of the booting), and run PanzerCorpsWehrmacht-SetupRelease-v103.exe (from your hardisk) to install Panzer Corps in your Windows.
Let's see if this works.

The Strange thing is, that at the first try i could "choose" the Language - it didnt work then as well, but at least... After that, on all other Trys absolutely nothing happens. Im getting the Windows "Sand Glass" for roundabout 5 secs - thats all. I also watched it in the Windos Task Manager - no new Tasks or anything at all seems to happen.

That seems to be an issue with the Internet Security program. Look at a similar case:

Have you completely disabled your AntiVirus and firewall?
