System Requirements and Installation

Installation Troubleshooting for Web Installer

Note, if the web installer runs, but Visual3D fails to run, there is a good chance that the dependencies were not auto-installed as they should have been.  You can install these manually by clicking the links shown above under "Dependencies", starting with DirectX, which is the most common dependency to be missing (since Visual3D uses a very recent release of DirectX from August 2009).
