Installation problems

Recommended Posts

Guest artl

Am I really the only one in the whole world that cannot install FS2004?I have traded in my first set of blue coasters for another with no change in symptoms. My XP-pro system has been stable for months, running FS2002 and FLY2 with no (or at least... just the usual) problems.System is:AMD XP2200+1gb memoryASUS A7V333ASUS V8420 128mb TI4200 video50Gb free diskXP-pro, updated.Install freezes or BSODs after 100% files copied, and during the "scenery decompression" stage. Sometimes get a bubble indicating that an FS file on hard drive is corrupt and chkdsk is required (thats on the hard drive not the CD, so the installation is screwing up the FAT)No viruses on scan. Viruscan suspended for install. updated simplisoft driver for cd, as per Microsoft error analysis... with no change...Art

Had this problem too, here is what I did to solve it:1) I disabled Zone Alarm Pro (a firewall) that was running in previous attempts.2) I used WinIso to create images of the 4 discs on my hard drive, then installed using Daemon Tools and all went perfect.I don't know which of the 2 made the trick but now it has installed perfectly.Ciao.
