hi all just trying to get cc5 to work on a friends laptop and hes on xp. the game will not install and stops at 84% saying component transfer error-
component : required data files
file group: graphics files
files: d:data2.cab
error : data error (cyclic redunduncy check)
any help would be appreciated .
also tried running setup in 98 and 95 but no good. cant do administrator because its asking for a password and we dont know it because his laptop was bought 2nd hand |

hi
are you using a download? Or it the game from a disc?
i think cyclic redunduncy check means that some data is missing from the overall "mother" file
did you try installing on different pc? |

yeah sure just make a LAN, plug in the cable and see if CC finds the other pc
otherwise set up a LAN through your control panel on either laptops |
