First to uninstall it,go through the control panel>add/remove programs,try that one,then once you do that,make sure all your folder are gone,then you might even check the reg. to remove all traces of the game.Try to reinstall then,and repatch.

if not,see if you can open your drive with the cd(I mean through the drive. and click explore,run set up from there.

Ok with your CD in,open your my computer and then go to the drive with the CD,right click and from the menu choose the explore option,once open look for the installer exe. and try to run that.

ok ...try this,rename your Lead Pursuit folder to something else,say lead Pursuit-old and then cut it from the program files folder and move it to another place.then try to install the game again.

[D_Reynolds]

ok it says this when ever i try to run the setup exe on cd even when i have done what you said

 

"this package could not be opened verify that the package exists and that you can access it, or contact application vendor to verify that this is a valid windows installer package"

[D_Reynolds]

if i try to run af strait from the leap pursuit folder it says

 

fatal Error !!!

no theater found. please rerun the installer

hmm thats screwed - this is what Lead Pursuit used to recommend:

 

 

 

If anyone is having issues uninstalling Allied Force, please try the following:

 

Go to this page http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?...kb;en-us;290301

 

Halfway down is the download link to grab the Installer Cleanup Utility package.

 

Once you have downloaded the file, double click it and select "Run". This will install the package.

 

Go to C:\Program Files\Windows Installer Clean Up and double click "msicuu.exe"

 

In the list of programs that appear in the new window, choose (All Users) Falcon 4.0: Allied Force .... and at the bottom hit "remove".

 

This should allow you to reinstall AF correctly.
