The fun in installing PC games....

[Matt34]

Don't you just love it when your installing and you get that error window? I hope Vista takes care of this with the drag and drop installation it's said to have.

I just got LOTR: The Battle for Middle Earth II (I love RTS games) and I get about 9% installed and it comes up with "A problem occured with the W3d.big file blah blah blah." So I google the W3D.big and LOTR: BFME II and what you know, someone else had the same problem on IGN.com. So I go to the link and it's only two post both by the same person. The first one says he's having the same problem I'm having, the second one states, "Oh, nevermind, I fixed it myself."

Thanks man, gald you solved the problem but how about next time TELLING US HOW YOU DID IT!!! Heaven forbid you share that kind of information.




...So now I'm joining IGN's forums so I can PM the guy.

Ok, I'm done.

Not to make light of your particular problem. But I just wish I had the time to play computer games.

Matt,

I thought you were playing real FPS's everyday?

You actually have hard drive space left on that poor little laptop?

Dave

P.S.- Give Beast a scratch behind the ears for me. (and stay safe)

Yeah, I usually don't have much time back home either but here it's either mission or sitting on your butt waiting for the next. Not much else to do besides go to the gym which only takes up a very small portion of the day.

External hard drive

Beast is in doggy timeout right now. She thought she would crawl under the break area fence and go exploring the camp on her own, then not listen to me when I told her to come back.

Beast went AWOL then disobayed a direct order...does she have a good lawyer?

Give her a scratch anyway,

Have you considered the possibility that by deliberately not revealing this piece of useful information, and by your having signed up for membership, you have just fallen victim to IGN forum's newest cutting edge recruiting strategy?

LOL, I just might have. It's free to sign up and post but if you want to PM you have to pay.

You bought the LOTR games?! EW! Those games stink.

Get NFS:MW. Excellent driving game. Obviously get HL2, Doom3(if you like terrible games that look amazing) and maybe pick up the new HL game episode one, or something. Don't have it yet, but I've heard its good.
