OE error running downloaded demo

Air traffic Control is one of the few sims that really interests me so when I heard about Air Command 3.0 I wanted to try it.

I downloaded the demo and when I go to run it all I get is an OE error. Any help with this problem.

I am ready to order once I see the demo.

I'm not familiar woth this error. Does it happen during the install process or the initial unzipping?

Install and unzipping seem to work fine.
Installs itself in the start menu. its just when I go to run the actual demo does this occur.

I have latest directx, in fact everything is fairly new. I run a lot of other games and they all work. I even tried the whole download/unzip process again after uninstalling the demo. Same result. Blue screen of death with an OE error.

Does anything come up at all before the BSOD?
