Halo: Combat Evolved not install because af a failed copy in a10.map

Hi Microsoft responds.

I recently tried to install Halo: Combat Evolved on my PC.

I entered the product key and it started to install, but after copyed 2% of the files, it stops at: a10.map

Here, he tells me he has a disk problem, and I need to check if the place I copy that it is already in use, which is not and check if I have enough disk space on the C: drive, what I'm doing.

How can I fix it?

I'll try running it in compatibility mode.

Most of the games are compatible with Win7. I know for a fact that halo is compatible, as I have on my win7 64 bit system and it works fine. It might be a problem with the actual CD.

If you have the cd key, you can download an .iso of the halo installation CD and allows to install it.

Or, if you intend to play Halo for the multiplayer, I would say get Halo: Custom Edition (requires a cd-key) here:http://hce.halomaps.org/index.cfm?fid=410

It's the same as Halo with 2 major differences. 1. you can not play the solo mode directly (the campaign is not displayed in the menu and the cards are not in the folder program files) and 2. personalized cards (as in all new cards, not only the cards that have been modded) can be played. There are many custom maps and they are very fun to play.

As I said you can not read 'directly' solo in Custom Edition, however it is possible. Just download campaign maps, here:http://hce.halomaps.org/index.cfm?pg=1&sid=35

These solo cards were made by mapping team CMT and include changes and improvements on the original maps (for example, vehicles and weapons of halo 2). Once you have downloaded the maps, turn on the console (go to the properties of the halo CE shortcut and add - console at the end of the target line.) Thus, for example, "C:\Users\Custom Edition.exe \Desktop\Halo" - console

Once the console is enabled, start the game, open the console with ~ (1 left) and type in map_name so for example map_name a10 for level 1.

If my explanation is not very good, there is also an article here: http://hce.halomaps.org/index.cfm?nid=386

  • Impossible to install Halo Combat evolved Version 1 on Windows 7

    So far, I have found the windows operating system 7 is very useful. However, when trying to install my old previous OS games, he runs problems. For example, I can not install the .msi or Halo Combat evolved Version 1 icefields.map file and therefore cannot play the game. It worked on my last, XP 64-bit, the computer and should work on Windows 7, as it worked on an OLDER operating system. I know you have had this problem with other games too and that the store doesn't have to work on the extension .msi files, but I don't see why one of these occur. There is no logic that the convenience store would work on the extension .msi files (although I'm not a computer expert) and I guess it would be an eassy and interesting problem to solve, as many of the issues online were based on this. Also, I was particularly surprised that Halo has not worked because it was made by Microsoft, is still commonly used and would be easy to send an additional patch on fixing the problem. Finally, I had planned and currently still plan to buy the newest games from Microsoft and halo (and many others, more recent games), but I think that the incompatibility between Windows 7 and these older games is unacceptable, a scam full and easy to fix. Sorry for the bother you and I hope this issue is resolved quickly.

    To say the things in question form: Microsoft can solve this problem, so that its customers are satisfied by the new operating system?

  • Halo Combat evolved - installation problem - invalid CD Key?

    So I bought Halo Combat Evolved for PC and tried to install it when it came today. Everything was fine. The computer is restarted after installation. Then, when I click on the shortcut, the game says my CD key is not valid, and I need to uninstall and reinstall before I could play.

    Problem is that I can't understand how to install it. I went to my control panel and went to uninstall/change program, but it is not which are listed there. Not at all! How can I uninstall something when it is not yet here? Also? How my CD key is the problem? I know that I input correctly!

    Alright. So apparently, you open Halo in your Microsoft Games folder on your computer (if it's where everyone installs it as I did). In this case, scroll to UNINSTAL. EXE... why the _ it must be uninstalled in a stupid way is beyond me. I'm starting to regret this purchase already.

  • Halo: Combat Evolved for PC works only on Windows Vista - Error Message "" unload the debugger, and then try again."

    I'm having a problem running Halo: Combat Evolved on Windows Vista. I can insert the disc and install the game without problem. The problem is that when I try to launch the game, I get error message saying "" unload the debugger, and then try again." I tried to install some of Halo patches to see if that would fix the error (for example, 1.6 and 1.7), but when I try and open the patch .exe file I get an error message telling me to go to a microsoft Web site or try to update the game manually. In addition, I tried to contact Gearbox Software to see if they could help me, all they said was to contact Microsoft.

    Does anyone have any suggestions as to why the game does not work for me and how can I make it work?

    Let me know, thanks. :)

    This is a known bug 'Dumb MS' and very simple to fix. It is simply that the installer wants to put a bit of a music (the standard windows sound) file in a particular place, and the directory does not exist on some copies of OEM Windows XP home.

    You just need to create the folder he wants before rerunning the SP3 update. Not at the moment, I can't find a link to the exact thing, but if these directories do not exist, create them. You must be logged on as administrator user to do this.

    The file beethoven.wma wants to be in the folder "C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Shared Documents\Shared Music".
    OR maybe "C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Documents\My Music\Sample sounds\" on XP-Home Edition

    OUT will not install because Error 1324, path has invalid character?

    Seems to be a problem bit common (per google search) for Adobe and Microsoft programs, but nothing on OUT...

    Everything I tried (Google had suggestions) did not work.

    I suspect that the Setup program tries to install an invalid path but I can't find it in the registry or understand why the error.  The program was previously installed and functional, but after having some problems, I have tried to re - install and find myself here!

    Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Intel Core2Duo T5450

    Vista 32 bit

    Solved!

    It seems previous version could not be uninstalled because of the invalid path {somehow over time windows had reassigned drive letters such as the former location of installation on external hard drive F: (as in the registry), was now pointing to the DVD drive f: and I guess generated Error 1324, path has incorrect character}.

    Used Revo Uninstaller to erase all traces of the old installation and 'voila', new facility OUT proceeded successfully.

    Hope this helps others with this error code.
