I always thought InstallShield was different than the MSI stuff - but I went with the msi stuff b/c everyone else did, InstallShield is a separate Intel-based(?) entity ???Quote:
This issue might occur when there is a clash with the InstallShield engines.
Fix
1. Make sure you have full administrative privileges on your computer. This only applies to Windows NT 4.0, 2000, and XP computers; Windows 95, 98, and ME do not require this. For more information, see Acquire Administrative Privileges on Your Computer
2. Delete an InstallShield directory:
- 1. Launch Windows Explorer by pressing Windows Key + E on your keyboard or select Start > Run and type explorer.
2. Browse to C:\Program Files\Common Files\InstallShield\Professional\RunTime\0701.
3. Right-click the highlighted engine directory and select Delete.
3. Install the InstallShield Engine Update 701.
- 1. Download the InstallShield Engine Update 701 and save it to your Desktop.
2. Double-click InstallShieldEngineUpdate701.exe to install it.
4. Run the install locally by copying the installation files to your local hard drive.
- 1. Using Windows Explorer browse to the location of the installation files. For example, if the installation is on a CD, browse to the CD-ROM drive:
2. Copy the contents of the installation location.
3. Temporarily paste them to a location on the local hard drive. For example, the Desktop.
4. Run the install file, setup.exe or install.exe.
One little question:Where do I get install update 701???

They're all from different Installed Apps you've installed
as a matter of fact - just REMOVE Them ALL and try the Install of MoHPA - without even Updating...
I think from the eroor log that a ver. 10.xx was used as the Installer Setup for that CD
I tried removing SP2 and all the hotfixes on one hotfix removed,it destroyed winlogon.dll I guess when you marry MS you can't get divorced! I had to do a repair and I got more work to do to restore all of it.Quote:

Update:I guess I'll never know what was stopping ISW from running
hey now!!
Finally -- joy at last ...that'll teach 'em
but beware of the newer HDCP debacle ....here already, but only to get worse

Hello!
Thank you for contacting us here at Electronic Arts Technical Support. I'm sorry to hear you're having troubles with installing Medal of Honor: Pacific Assault.
Here are some tips to help get past the CD ROM trouble you are having. Please try these one at a time, and then try loading the game after each step. If the same issue (or an additional issue) occurs, proceed to the next step.
There have been some known issues with CD ROMs reading Safedisk Correctly for Windows XP. You can try this Safedisk Patch and it should resolve your issue:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...displaylang=en
Install the downloaded file, then restart your computer. If you have another CD rom/DVD/CD-RW Drive on your computer, I'd recommend trying to run it from there. If you have any Virtual CD rom drives running, such as "Daemon Tools" or "Phantom CD", these will need to be disabled. These programs will emulate a CD rom drive and will confuse the game because it will look to this drive instead of your physical CD rom drive.
If you're having trouble with the Installation of the game, you could also try copying the contents of the disk into a folder on your hard drive and try installing from there.
· Insert the CD into the CD rom.
· Exit the startup menu when it comes up.
· Double click "My Computer"
· Right click on the CD-ROM drive with the game CD in it and select "Explore".
· Hold the "CTRL" key and then hit "A". That should select all the files.
· Hold "CTRL" and hit "C". This will not look like it does much, but it's preparing to copy the files.
· Close that folder and go to your desktop.
· Right click on any blank space, and Select "New", then "Folder".
· Name the folder "Game files".
· Double click the folder we just created, and hit "CTRL" and "V". This will begin coping the files from the CD.
If the game has more then one CD rom disk, create separate folders for each CD. Once it's complete, remove the CD from your CD rom drive, and double click the setup.exe from the first folder you created.
If these steps fail, see if you can try to install the disk on another computer to verify the integrity of the disk itself. If setup fails on another system, or you do not have access to another system to try this on, you will want to contact our Warranty department for a replacement disk.
If your game disk has been determined to be defective upon purchase, or has been damaged due to misuse or wear, our warranty department can replace it for a nominal fee. Click on the following link for replacement instructions and associated fees:
