| 355666 | 2005-05-16 08:53:00 | Nope not a virus. Altho it could have been damaged by one. Might be a compatibility prob depending on what youre trying to install, or a corrupt file. Could be this support.microsoft.com Or try this bidgoodsvcs.netfirms.com |

| 355668 | 2005-05-16 11:35:00 | Looking at the error message looks like you have a version of the game not suitable for your O/S. Perhaps you should confirm that before reinstalling. | zqwerty (97) | ||
| 355669 | 2005-05-16 12:04:00 | goto c:\windows\repair copy the autoexec.nt file that is there to c:\windows\system32, then make it read only Yes virus and spyware activity can cause this but so can sp2 (believe it or not. Buried very very very deep in the microsoft knowledge base) Hope you havn't formatted yet Also a forum search would have revealed many threads on this subject |
