I have downloaded a game to my computer which runs vista. When I click on
the install for the game it installs for about 45 min than it says download
failed, download timed out. Does anyone know how to fix this problem? any
suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!!

What game? From where? In general, when you choose to download a file
don't try and run it from the website. Save the file to where you will
find it (the Downloads folder in your user directory is the default).
Then once the download is complete, double-click the file to run the
installer. If this is what you are already doing (sorry, it isn't clear
from your post), then you may need to run the installer as
Administrator. In that case, right-click on the file and choose "run as
Administrator".

If you need more help, provide more details.
