Firebird17 · 01-06-2002, 04:20 AM

Hi!
I downloaded the big 175MByte SP Demo yesterday and tried oday to install it, but always when the installation just has begun, the setup asks me to insert another CD to proceed installing. If I enter a path it always tells me that there isn't the needed file. I have win XP as OS! Do I have to redownload the game or lies the problem somewhere else??? please help me
thanx

Make sure you:

1. Delete all the old folders

2. Scan-disk your hard-drive

3. defrag your hard/drive

4.re-install

Hi!
I solved the problem. I think it was because of winxp. Before the installation all files were copied into Cdocuments and settings..... but as the real installation started, the program or win xp{i dont exactly now} deleted all the files before thez were extracted and installed into the directorz the sp demo should be installed. So i copied these files into another place, where they couldnt be deleted, and entered that directory when the installation asked for the CD. That worked!!! A bit complex and timewasting, but now the demo runs!!!
thanx to all for their help etc.
