I hate my computer

Lady Blue03 · 03-26-2002, 08:14 PM

OK im seriously starting to get pissed...the new version of shadow keeper doesnt work on this comp, but the old one does....ok....then the patches wont install, heres the exact message: The contents of this file could not be unpacked. The executable you are attempting has been corrupted. Please obtain another copy of the file, verify its integrity, and try again...i didnt even know files had integrity...
It did the same with the Java runtime thingy i need to run the Infinity Engine. So can someone tell me what the hell my computer is missing that makes it do that?Thx

Lady Blue03 · 03-26-2002, 08:23 PM

Then there is a problem somewhere... win 98 should not be doing this.

I suggest you reinstall windows.

Try putting your windows cd in your cd drive and restarting your computer. It should then ask if you ant to go to windows or start from the cd.
