Which version of Celestia? 1.2.4 or the most recent pre-release version of 1.2.5?

how did you get it?
what kind of system are you trying to install it on?
(CPU, O/S, graphics card, OpenGL version, graphics hardware version)

It seems most likely that there was a transmission error which damaged the copy you downlaoded. You should try downloading it again.

Probably the best place to get it is
http://www.celestiaproject.net/celestia/files/ ... -1.2.4.exe

Personally, I've had no problems installing version 1.2.4 under WinXP Pro and NT 4.0. The more recent pre-releases of v1.2.5 have various bugs, including some which will cause them to crash immediately on some system hardware and software configurations, so its important that you descrive the details of your system configuration.
