try fully uninstalling it, then installing it again. also, you shouldnt have extracted that file, it might screw it up more. i dunno, i've never done stuff like that, heck, you might know more about what files to extract than i do, lol, im mostly modding, skinning, etc, but i try to help where i can anyway, lol.

sounds to me like the disc is screwed up, not the files. have ne scratches or nething on it? that can cause problems.

hmm, well, i really couldnt tell u then. id just uninstall the whole thing, make sure u get everything out, then install it again, and see if that works. if not, well im sry to say i dunno wat the problem is, and ull prolly hav to get professional help, or maybe not even be able to play halo :o :shock: . god i hope that doesnt happen to u, lol. but if uninstalling then reinstalling doesnt work, try calling the tech support number thing they have sumwer in the book, i believe. they might be able to help.
