I prefer to copy CD files to a hard disk to unzip them anyway ... it goes faster. Second: it will need a LOT of space to unpack it. How much space have you got free? You might have to dispose of a lot of temporary files, do a defrag etc.	Guest (0)

The message coming up reads: The decompression of %s failed. There may not be enough free disk space available in the temp directory. Would appreciate your input again.	Guest (0)

Sometimes if you have alot of junk in your C:/windows/temp folder programs have trouble unpacking themselves. Try deleting everything from the temp folder I mentioned above and run the install again. And double check you have at least 100 megs free to begin with.	Guest (0)
