Hi pakrat2k2,

I am having real problems with the conversion. I manage to convert the installed game in to the DVD5's. The main problem I have is when I install the converted game, it merges all the cab files together but does not extract that merged file in to the install location. It just says the installation is finished.

Do you know why this is the case? I have made the conversion a few times but it has the same result.

I hope you can help.

Thanks

Make sure the HD your installing to has at least 80GB freespace, temp files 40GB + game files once extracted about the same. Also make sure you've uninstalled original version prior to installing the conversion one.

Hi there,

I am still having real problems with installing the conversion.

It merges all the cab files together, after that it says the installation is finished. In the folder where the game is installed is The Uninstall folder and GameuxInstallHelper.dll

It does not extract any of the merged cab file.

Please can you tell me what could be wrong?

I have over 100GB free on the install drive and my C drive.

Thanks

I'll have to dig out my dvd's & make some room on HD to re-test, but I'm 100% positive that it installs perfectly, otherwise I wouldn't have posted the updated version.

will be hour or so, before can test no-video version, as installer is 80% done video version. Then have to copy files off DVD's to double check no-video version.

Hi pakrat2k2,

I have just checked the setup files again. It looks like I had the wrong Setup.exe and Setup.dll

Sorry for that. They were from Feb. I was sure I overwritten them.

Thank you for this amazing conversion.

at least got that sorted out, I was 100% sure it was on your end, as no one else has reported issues.
just post back if with the new files it extracts properly.
