... I think I understood that...

Viruses can't be transfered onto CDs like that. It's impossible.

you have a grand total of 3 periods, good improvement... and your problem sounds like the one i used to have... is your cd scratched up? and your idea of downloading is called warez... ILLEGAL DONT DO IT

and if you want to be understood from now on... ill repost your post with some basic corrections:

ok here ya go. i unistalled halo, it wouldnt work. now, when i try to install it off the cd, it gives me errors like, "cant install menu.sxt" ,or "install a30 map ." now, is there some way to install it off a downloaded exe to install halo? i have a cd key. i have a cd that plays halo, when it's installed but wont install it. someone help me. PLEASE

He doesn't want warez, he want's a program that'll run the installation off his cd, without being on his cd. I'd suggest burning a copy if you can, or making an ISO image of your cd and mounting it using something like D-Tools.

i thought there was some kind of encryption so you cant burn it? and i want to hear about this ISO thingy... doesnt that have to do with ppf-o-matic?

do what my friend did:
buy a copy from kmart
cut a little slit into the plastic
slowly ease out halo
put scratched copy back inside
return it


but then again, his dad was really good at doing this, so who knows, and that was xbox version with the plastic case. pc come in a box.. a bit harder to do. and i was JK with this. but you didnt hear it from me :mrgreen:
