I bought This game about 3hrs ago, brand new, Sealed, everything included Not a problem there, but when i start installation it Says there is an error with the cab files or something ??? Ive tried and tried and even asked a friend who has the game and recommended it too me, he doesnt know either, i asked in another forum and was told it could be because of my O/S but im using Windows ME, and it works for my friend...Any Help plzzzzzz, This game looks awsome

Your system is having problems extracting the large compressed CAB files on the disks. This is usually down to lack of virtual memory. Try installing it again, this time after shutting down all unnecessary applications running in the background. In particular, shut down/disable anti-virus programs which are known to cause this sort of installation problem. Remember to do this over again if you have to reboot during the install.

Oh right, Ok ill try what you have recommended and get back to you, Thankyou  :) I Hope it works

OK, good luck. Please tell us if it works. If not, I'm sure someone else will come up with something.

It reckons that a file is corrupted????Why is this???!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Very Angry

Of course, it's possible you have a bad disk. I think this is unlikely. First make sure the CDs are not dirty, damaged or scratched. If they're damaged in any way, take it back for a refund.

Go offline & exit all programs. Shut down all those background applications. EnditAll is a great little utility for doing this safely with a single click. http://home.ptd.net/~don5408/toolbox/enditall/
Also disable any anti-virus programs while doing the install. If setup appears to lock up, give it a chance as there's a lot of big files to decompress. This might take a while so be patient.
