Reinstall 6.3 again, make sure every program is run with "run as administrator" and uac is off. Repatch 6.4 with the same settings. Run ss_setup.exe before starting 6.4.

yes i've already done the setup thing it the first thing that pops up when u install...and i dunno really know whats a uac?

i'm also running on a windows xp 32bit...

by the way the files that i dled were

SS6.3-1.bin
SS6.3-2.bin
SS6.3-3.bin
SS6.3-4.bin
SS6.3-5.bin
SS6.4.exe

and i just ran the exe file. so was i suppose to install the .exe file for 6.3 first? i jus dled the files that were on the 6.4 thread

You need to run SS6.3.exe first to install 6.3.

Setup: Filefront or MegaUpload (3mb)
(needs all of the following parts [the bin files] in the same folder to work)
SS 6.3 Part 1: MegaUpload (596mb)
SS 6.3 Part 2: MegaUpload (599mb)
SS 6.3 Part 3: MegaUpload (599mb)
SS 6.3 Part 4: MegaUpload (599mb)
SS 6.3 Part 5: MegaUpload (66mb)

Not directly, no

(REQUIRES 6.3 INSTALLATION!

)

Download the file called SS6.4.exe and run it.
The installer will guide you through the rest of the process.
Remember, 6.3 is required for this, and you must point the installer to the 6.3 folder!

Download for SS6.3 (required for 6.4):

Glad it works now.
