Ok so I just installed Windows Vista Ultimate. Before I reformatted I had XP and Vista(2 os) on my PC. I had XP on it first for a while and had no problem with Ren. So I install my second OS (Vista Ultimate) and install Ren With no problem at all. Now that I reformatted (only 1 OS now) Vista Ultimate). I go and install, Agree To the Agreement, Put my CD Key in, Install 3 Components, Give the Dir where i want Ren to install in.. Then I get to here.. First SS leads to the Second SS. I've also tried many other names to put in that box "Renegade" "W3stw00d" they all didn't work! I ran the setup.exe as an Administrator.
WONT LET ME PAST THIS! Notice how the box above Westwood is blank? Usually it shows the Start > All Programs > (Program Folders).
Please HELP! THX!

Yea I auto run the disc, then it ask(RUN AS ADMINISTRATOR) I say YES. Yea, I think the rest of the .exe in the ren disc probably arn't allowed do anything(even install and perform correctly). How would i Disable this Administrator mode for a bit so i can install Ren? or is there any way around this?

Okay so on the go to the main disk and go into the Setup folder right click on the setup.exe and go Run as Administrator dont click on it, you will get diffrent results.

I suppose you did try changing the install dir to a different one? Did you try creating the directory yourself manually before running the setup?

Yea i tried that. I tried to install ren on my other pc, and I guess my laser in my disc player is going to sit because it wouldn't get past 34%. So not sure how I am going to get an encrypted serial. I tried my friends who play but they won't give me theirs.

Try the Renegade serial number changer application in General Discussion; use version 1.1 found near the end of the topic.

Not talking about a Serial changer, k thx.
Newayz, I tried to get that program to work, I put in all the correct information
Serial: 9980******************
Directory to install: C:\westwood\renegade
Disc Tray: D
Then I click install, Then it asks am i Sure i want to install in the C:\Westwood\Renegade\ and I say "yes" then it says something about how always.dat and .mix files might take a while to extract so dont reboot your pc if its not responding so i click "ok" then i get this...
*edit for Saberhawk*
Sorry, I didn't know you were talking about it being able to create a encrypted serial in the registry with that serial changer. Should of said it did that in your first reply

Ok, so I had my friend (Blacky) help me out. He said all I need is winrar, so we go into the installation folder in the ren CD and start to extract Game1.cab to C:\Westwood\Renegade folder. Then we installed all the Ren updates, 1.037 patch, cp2, ren scripts. Then I launch game2.exe and have no problems til i get to WESTWOOD ONLINE. It says westwood components not installed, so i go here http://www.renegadeforums.com/index.php?t=msg&goto=330413&rid=0 to find out why, so i get the RenFDS, install the WOL Components, and apply them to the C:\westwood\ Folder (When they are in the Internet Folder). Then i go and run Westwood Online again, this time it doesnt say something about westwood components. I try to login, it says i have invalid serial, so i go to these forums and find the serial changer, i put in my serial, it says serial applied. Then i try westwood again, it says invalid serial again. So i go in my regedit and my renegade folder, and look at my serial, I put in my encrypted serial, and try westwood online again, i get the same problem once again. How would i fix this?

Did you use version 1.1 of the serial changer from near the *end* of the serial changer topic? The one in the opening topic does not work.
