Hi just downloaded the gold,juno,sword mod and followed all the instructions
on this site but when i went to run the game it keeps saying it is unable to read one or more registry entry and that i should re-install.
Please help as i spent some time downloading the mod and was looking forward to playing another version of cc5
MY OS IS WINDOWS XP
ENGLISH VERSION WITH THE 5.01 PATCH
AND A WHEN I CLICK ON THE CC5 ICON A CLOSE COMBAT ERROR
WINDOW COMES UP SAYING "UNABLE TO READ ONE OR MORE REGISTRY
ENTRIES.PLEASE REINSTALL CLOSE COMBAT.
FIRST TIME DOING THIS, BUT I'M SURE I FOLLOWED THE INSTRUCTIONS PROPERLY.

I encountered something similar. See my post in the Mess re Winter War.
I played CC5 to death, and wanted to try some of the mods, so I started with GJS. I didn't load it properly first time, but did eventually get it working - my problem had been not following the intsructions to the letter (RTFM).
I then had problems installing Meuse Crossing, and encountered similar registry problems to those that you describe. So I tried unplugging and re-installing CC5.
I then discovered that I could not uninstall or re-install over the top, I suspect because some of the registry entries had been inadvertently amended by my flailing about. So I loaded CC5 onto another PC, and copied the program files over. Once I had re-installed the game, I patched it and bingo - I was able to run CC5 and insert the plug-ins.
All my plug-ins were safe as these were kept in a separate folder. On that note, I have done these slightly differently, as each mod appears to suggest slightly different directories. I have therefore set up a folder called Config Manager CC5 within c:\Program Files (and another one for CCIV) and have put all the mods in it. I keep the downloads separate in case I need to re-install the maps.
I hope that this may be of help. Good luck!
If no-one has any better ideas, this may be a solution.
