Error installing Fallout 3:-'Default functionality', component 'Fallout3', file: E:\data2 cab, error "incorrect function".

Original title: 'Incorrect function' Fallout 3

I have Vista 32-bit, all the elements for Fallout 3. It starts to install then a box pops up saying characteristic-'Default Feature', component 'Fallout3', file: E:\data2 cab, error "incorrect function".  I have the original disc, no copy, I cleaned the disc. I don't know what else to do?

Hi tsp2u61,

Usually, when you get this error, it means that your CD cannot be read.

You can check if the drive works in another computer to make sure that the disk is not damaged.

You can try to copy all the contents of the installation of the drive on the local hard drive and install from there and check if you can install

a. right click on the desktop, create a new folder and name it as Fallout 3

b. Insert the diskette in Fallout 3

c. Click Start and open computer.

d. right-click on the CD / DVD drive and click Open.

e. press the Alt key and click on modify.

f. click on select all.

g. still once, press the ALT key and click on copy.

h. Ouvrezledossier Fallout 3 on the desktop.

i. press the Alt key and click on paste.

Now try to install files copied on the desktop and check if it works very well.

If this is not enough, you may need to get in touch with the help of the game maker.
