Max Payne 2 Installation

[Salim]

I just got max payne 2 from my cuzin and tried to install it but it gets like half way then i get an error. It says Component transfer error Component: Main, File group: main, File: F:\data2.cab Error: Data error (cyclic redundancy check) My cuzin said it worked for him but why not for me. Then he told me that he went to suprnnova and downloaded max payne 2 cd 1 missing rars. I have a 56 k connection and cant download it. How would I install them anyway? Please help?!

[Salim]

C'mon can anyone help me at all? Maybe its my cd drives? Cuz I just talked to my cuzin and he said he gave me the right cd's and that they worked for him cuz he played it. Can anyone give any tips?

[Monkeee]

maby you guys like scratched it crazy and got it corrupted :P

[Salim]

No, there are no scratches on the cd's at all. I think this is the uncut one cuz the first one he got he said it didnt work so he got this one, but how in the world does it work for him and not me and my pc is better too. I duno I'm so mad. Maybe it had like a one time use thing or something. I told him to download me another one but how do i know that one will work? and Which is the reall Max payne 2 on suprnova?

[BawA]

this all about fake games, some times they work and some times they dont but i allways mount them

make image file from the cd and mount them on HDD then install it

if u dont know about images then cheak Pinned topic or go Here (http://klboard.ath.cx/index.php?showtopic=72415)

it doesn't matter how better the computer is, its mostly the hardware that backs it. Lets say, you have a 2.4 ghz p4 processor with 256 mb ram. and i have a 1.7 ghz p4 processor with 1 gb ram. which would be the better one? tough decision. but, i bet you that it just the cd reader. try making your temp folder a bit bigger. and also, try just putting his cd reader in place of yours, and see what happends.

[Salim]

Well I have a pentium 4 3.0ghz, 160gb hard drive, 1gb pc-3200 ddr ram dvd player and a dvdrw and a cdrw in one. With a 128mb geforcefx 5200. My cuzin has a 1.7ghz, 512mb, and 80gb hardrive with a cdrw and dvd player. He has a hewlet packard. I have a Sony Viao. I cant take his cd reader cuz he lives 2 hours away and i only see him on vacations. And he wouldnt let me do that anyway. How would I increase my temp folder? Dam I widh I could play Max payne 2, I'm thinkin about buyin it but duno. He burned me call of duty and at least that installed and works awesome but I still want max payne! I dont think it would have this error if I bought it but you know there goes like 40 bucks i dont have.

Q: I get an CRC error during installation OR
Q: The system crashes during the installation with the error "the file c:\program files\max payne2\MP2_*.ras doesn't match the file in the setup's cab file. The medium from which you are running the setup may be corrupted: contact your software vendor."
Try disabling DMA on your CD-ROM drive. Here is how:

Go to Start\Settings\Control Panel
Double-click the System icon in the System Properties dialog box.
Select the Device Manager tab. Click the + plus sign next to the cd-rom icon.
Double-click the icon for your cd-rom drive.
Click the Settings tab and de-select the DMA check box in the Options panel. Click Ok twice.
You probably will have to restart your computer after doing this.

There is no settings tab in the cd drive area and no dma check box either, I have windows xp.

why the :swear: are you telling him to disable DMA?

tsk tsk :angry: :angry: :angry: :angry:

[Salim]

I cant disable it any way. I'm getin to think that the cd is scratched somehow. Cuz I have had other scratched games like call of duty and they installed fine. It must be the only option since it worked for my cuzin before he gave it to me. I asked him to download me another copy of max payne 2, and he is getin the devience one cuz thats the only devience one that has more people the rest of the devience have only one person. I think it is 1478mb or somethin like that, is that the one with missing rars? I duno how it will ever finish cuz his pc keeps restarting every 10 to 20 minutes! I really want to play this game! Not fair he got to play it and didnt even finish it!

tsk tsk..... yea thats prolly why ur post count is 10.....

[Salim]

Its alright I cant disable it cuz I dont have it anyway. This must be for other windows versions.

[DWk]

if u disable dma ur computer would probably go REAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALLYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY slooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow

[Salim]

How do I disable it any way? Would it stay slow forever or until I enable it again?

[cwctv]

Next time he cuts a disc for you ask him to cut very slow this can have an effert on other machines too ,too many ppl cut too fast then another machine can&#39;t read it correctly.

[Salim]

I duno what you mean by cutting? He didnt actually cut it with a knife, And he didnt scratch it on purpose, maybe it wont transfer the file cuz it just got messed up somehow on its own?

He means to burn the image at the slowest speed possible. That works for ps2 games burnt to a dvd but I dont know about a pc game because its burnt to a cd.

[Salim]

It couldnt be cuz he never messes witht the burn speeds so it must of goten messes on its own&#33; Dam I wish I could play it&#33;

[ricochet]

You can download it from Here (http://www.sharereactor.com/release.php?id=6978) nand burn it yourself. Or install it using daemon tools... This way you got a good copy. :)
