  1. Installation problem

    Hey Paulus, IT WORKED!!! It installed fine from the BD drive and I got the full CFS3 game installed. Thanks so much--you saved me tons of delay and frustration. Appreciate your help. Mo Morgan
  2. Installation problem

    They may be a possibility, although I copied all the files to hard drive and got the same CAB6.CAB error so I don't believe it's my CD drive. I also have a Blu-Ray Disk drive I can try. I'll give that a shot and see how it goes. Thanks Paulus.
  3. Installation problem

    I am excited to play BHH:OFF so I purchased a copy of Microsoft Combat Flight Sim 3, which I understand is the baseline game necessary for installation of BHH:OFF. When attempting to install my copy of CFS3 I got an error which said "Inadequte swap file size or corrupted CAB6.CAB file. Please restart your computer and try again. Uninstalling CFS3." I assumed I had a CD with a corrupt CAB6.CAB so I returned it for replacement and had the identical experience. I tried to contact ValuSoft but their support website links don't work. I called Microsoft and CFS3 is no longer under tech support warranty and they recommended I buy Flight Simulator X which I don't believe will work for BHH:OFF (which was the whole reason I bought CFS3 in the first place). None of the KnowledgeBase articles addressed an installation error like mine. I went into System and changed the virtual memory swap file size from 8GB to 13GB (12+ was recommended) so there should be more than adequate capability for this older game. I have 64-bit Vista Home Premium running on an XFX750i SLI with twin EVGA GeForce 9500 video cards (1GB each), 8GB of DDR2 RAM, and 2 1TB SATA hard drives so hardware should not be limiting factor. I set the SETUP.EXE file to Run As Administrator in XP Compability Mode and the same problem occurs. I don't know if I can find an uncorrupted full download of CFS3 somewhere (I have the original CDs) I can use for trying to get the game installed. If anyone can help me out here I'd really appreciate it. My copy of BHH:OFF will probably arrive in the mail next week and I'll be unable to use it without an installed copy of CFS3.
