Hey guys. Stumbled onto this forum and decided to ask you guys about an error I am getting when trying to install C&C Renegade. Let's see if you guys can point me to the right direction of fixing it. Thumbs Up

I start the installation, enter my serial, and it installs fine and fast too. It gets to 12% and just stops. I wait abit and then an error thing pops up and says something about a file system error. I get to the desktop and I do a little looking around on the game disc itself. I fine 8 Game discs and I look at all the sizes. All the Game1 to 8 files appear to be intact - excpet Game2. Game2's file size is FAR too low, 15.8 MB! All the other ones are atleast 71 and up! I found my little corrupted file.

So, what could I do to get that file back to it's state? I saw a thread on this site that actually had a link to get the Game2.dat file, but I passed it. Would there be a site that had the full Game2.dat file to download? If so, I copied all the files except for Game2 onto my desktop and I ahve a few blank discs so, if it means me copying all the files and the Game2 to a CD and having it work, by all means, I am up for it.

So, if you can help me out, I would appreciate it. Thank you so much for helping me if you can.

Sounds like either your CD is scratched, or your drive is having trouble reading it. Do you have another computer in your house that you could try installing on? Or at least put the cd in the drive of the other computer and share it, and do the install over the LAN?

If all else fails, sometime in the near future BHS is releasing a Renegade "Quick Installer", that will be a single large EXE file that you can download and very quickly install Renegade (and optionally CP2 + RenGuard).

I do not. I dow, however, have two disc drives. I tried the CD in both and still the same error.

Really? Sounds like that may work... except the wait Big Grin
When would that be of service to people?

And is there anymore suggestions for users? PErferable sugestions that I could try doing right now, like downloading a patch or somehing?
