WinXP FS9 MAJOR INSTALL PROBLEM PLEASE HELP!!

Recommended Posts

Guest

Ok.. I talked BestBuy guy to get me one from the back. I've been trying to install for last 2 hours. At first I was able to get late into CD3 and kept bring up not able to extract file X due to Low Memory (probably caused by small swap file size). I kept trying, then it started happening on CD 1!! I set all memory to system controls setting. Rebooted about 15 times... Now, it is just an endless circle. Please help.My system is as follows : WinXP SP1, 1gig Ram, 160gig HD, P4 2.4, Radeon 9800 pro 256mb.. ???BillyBob

Same Problem as you bud :)I did find a fix though , what you do is set your Hard disk to PIO only instead of DMA then you will need to restart then install FS it will take a little longer but should be fine , and then set the hard disk back to DMA.It worked for meHope it helps Asaf
