Installing problems

Hey!

I've bought RA3 today, and I've been trying to install it all day. When I reach about 75-79% a window pops up saying:

"Error reading from file E:\Date\Movies\somename.vp6 (it changes sometimes)"
Retry or cancel.

Anyone who have experienced this? Or is it just my cd-drive who's fucked?

- A new RA3 star!

RE: Installing problems

this is most likely a securom error. I had a problem similar to this with C&C3 a while back. Try copying all the files into a folder on your hard drive, then install the game. Let me know if that fixes your problem

RE: Installing problems

Okay, so I've tried that. And I now I have problems when I reach the Movies map. It can copy some of them, but when I reach to S08MM01.vp6 it does the same as when I try to install it.

RE: Installing problems

Problems installing Linux
I am trying to install to install Linux on an old HP with a 466Mhz Celery and 64 Mb of memory. I tried the commerical version of LinSpire with no success / it didn't have all the OS's requirements and would hang during install. I have also tried downloadable versions of Debian and Fedora Core without much success. I normally download the OS onto my laptop and burn a CD-RW and try to install that on my desktop. The problem I am running into is when I put the disk in and restart the machine it does not seem to pick the disk as a system disk. I have checked my BIOS and made sure that the boot order boots from the CD-ROM first. I would really like to use the Debian distro if possible. I welcome any advice anyone might have.

Thanks..
