Hi there. I'm trying to install WC3 RoC on my PC - recently formatted PC. I installed all the Drivers for my Nivida Card (Geforce 5200) and my CD Drive, I've copied files from the CD to a dummy folder to see if that would work (please read on) and so far I've had some very.. mixed.. results...
When using the autorun install.exe the installation process freezes at about 50% and stops reading, telling me there is an error with the War3.mpq file on the CD. HOWEVER: When I copy the files directly off of the CD into a dummy folder, it will transfer this file, but stop immediately afterwards, leaving several files out of the dummy folder. I will update the post with the exact error message received; however my question is this:
Would the mpq file not install because I am using a different CD key than what the CD originally came with? I contacted a friend of mine and he had the opposite problem; a CD key with no CD, so I am installing my CD with his CDKey.. would this cause an issue in the install process?
