I have spent the day upgrading my CFS3, to CFS3.1a, have put NEK on and some voicepaks. Then downloaded mission builder and a couple of aircraft. All went well until I unzipped mission builder and had a "play". When I started CFS3, all went well until after the flashing captions and talking, then the screen flashed and an error message occured stating a mission program error. Uninstalled CFS3, but will not now re-install, stops at 24% pregame x3 or something. Now can't get my all time favourite program to install! HELP!!!!
p.s I run windows xp.
Thanks
Rob

First Question - Do you have system restore if not have you uninstalled all the extra programmes and deleated any remaining files before trying to reinstall CFS3?

Could be a bad disk.  Had the same thing happen to me with FS2002.

Yes, I'd say its corrupted media, back to the shop for a replacement disk I'm afraid.

Have you tried a different CD drive???

Thanks chaps, have tried another disk drive, same result. Will try it on my lap top, if it does not load at the same point then disk is corrupt.
Cheers
