Titre: Installation Error - Solved
Posté par: Duke of Earl le 05 juin 2010, 21:06:10 pm
Bonjour Monsieurs,

Cannot install game (Emperor Edition) from CD to my Desktop PC with WIN XP and AVG 9.0 anti-virus installed.  

Cause unknown, cannot solve problem, websearch included.

Here are error messages:

1. ASTRUM INSTALLER (in the same box):

Checksum mismatch. the installation is corrupt or has been tampered with. If you downloaded this file from the internet, try downloading it again

2. ASTRUM INSTALLER (in the next box):

Couldn't read TOC. Aborting.


Prior successful install on Toshiba laptop with WIN VISTA and AVG 9.0.  :?

Cordialement, DoE

Are you using a download manager?

Also, you might want to turn off virus scanners and malware scanners when downloading and installing the software.

 hello,

Thanks for your advice, did a complete install of Vista, was the only way to get rid of the virus and then I reinstalled Artisteer, All ok now.
 


Duke this is a post on a Geek web site. I would do a Virus Scan & then try installing with AVG disabled

Bonjour ajlewisbrookes,

Hope everything is good there in Paulsbo .... nice town .....  :)

I have uninstalled AVG 9.0 and tried to install HWLG from CD, but no luck .... same result .... :(

I am still trying, but if I keep this up, my PC might explode (or my registry get tangled-up) ....  :lol:

I suspect a WIN XP configuration problem, but don't know what it is ....  :twisted:

Never had this problem installing any of my other game apps .... and there are quite a few ....  :?

Cordialement, DoE

I just did a successful install from the CD on an XP machine without problems.

It appears that the CD contains the same file we downloaded.  I just opened the CD and double clicked on the file. The installation went normally, and I was able to run the game.

If you suspect a virus, and your current virus scanning program can't find it, try an online scan.  This one found and removed a virus that McAfee and AVG couldn't find.  I'm now using their security suite.

There's a quaint little Anglo-European style pub in Paulsbo I used to have a pint and a lunch in on my business visits to that town -- it's upstairs over the row of shops on the main street downtown. Can't recall the name.

Bonjour Msr. Hook,

AVG 9.0 scan = 0 infections

ESET online scan = 1 infection

I don't suspect a virus .... I'm trying to install from an external CD/DVD unit .... Mad Dog Combo MD 52X16C .... driver may need to be updated  (Version 5.1.2535.0 from 7/1/2001) ....  :?

However, seems that Mad Dog Multimedia is no longer in business (folded in 2008) .... and my internal cd/dvd drive is screwed up .... nuts! ....  :x

Cordialement, DoE

I do not have any faulty hardware, am running Vista and can not install the game. I got the same Checksum message and my game was delivered via down load. What can I do? Thanks!
