An installation bug.
« on: January 06, 2003, 04:23:31 pm »

After the installation progress bar was full it said "Copying files" and then it froze. After reseting, the game was installed properly. The same thing happened to a friend of mine.

Mine did the same thing, but after about 15 minutes it just unfroze and said it was done.

Do either of you use a version of Windows with System Restore turned on?

I was having this problem with some commercial games (Medal of Honour and a couple of others) - they would install up to a point but then appear to hang. By chance I left one running for 20-30 mins and it suddenly carried on installing.

After trying various other things I found that by turning off System Restore, games would install without the long pause.
