HALO INSTALLATION PROBLEMS

Post by halo-sniper »

How come when im done with the product key it says...
setup failed to ectract files from c:/docume~1/WHOLEF~1/locals.../CAB1.CAB this is most likely caused by low memory (low disk space for swapping file) **i have 66.1 gigs free** or a corrupted cabinet file. please retsrat your machine and run setup again. WTF IS THIS !!!

It couldn't extract the cabinet file. Apparently your windows partition/drive doesn't have enough free space or swap space (pagefile) in order to extract the archive. Could also be due to a super low amount of available RAM. The error message tells you your problem.

You need to upload them to a image host. >> Photobucket.com | MyImg.com. Go with what kommie said, Tell us your ram could be the problem.

*Right click -> Properties on "My Computer" A good amount would be 512+ with Halo.

Try rebooting your computer and then reinstalling Halo. If that doesn't work than you may need to upgrade your computer or buy a new one.
