"ISNTALLATION ENDED PREMATURELY DUE TO AN ERROR"

I can't install Winter Assault, It kept giving me the above error..And to the tunes of Tchaikovskies 14th, I threw my monitor at the wall. Anywho, a spare monitor later, I still recieve this message upon trying to install. NOw, I don't know shit about shit for installing games, and all I know is that a friend tried to get me an error log, and I can't find one at all. So, please help, as I love Winter Assault.

Try copying the CD's to the hard drive and installing from there.

Alright. Will do.

Edit: Alright. I realized I already tried that, and.. No go. I have the GOTY edition, which seems to be having a shitswathe of problems. Any solution for this?

Where do I find that? I apologize for my noobery. Also, it won't install, if it needs to be installed to do that, I don't have it.. The instillation just flat out stops.

Start>Run... type dxdiag and hit enter. Save all info and then open the resulting file and copy and paste the contents to a post here (wrap it in [ code ] [ /code ] tags).

Can you try installing JUST dawn of war? Does that work? Is there an individual setup on one of the CDs for that?

No, no individual setups. It's all on fthe same disc set.

Shut down any security software you have running and try again.
