Almost had a heart attack!

GoldenRivet · 07-16-07, 02:50 AM

So i just got done playing with the playable bismarck mod but had to uninstall all of my mods to do it since the playable bismark mod only works with a clean install.

After wasting convoy after convoy and obliterating black swans with great big gun fury - that ran its course and i was ready to go back to normal.

so i uninstalled SH3 and all of its parts to reinstall and reconfigure everything to its pre-playable bismark mod glory.

Inser the DVD - autorun and get a pop up

"could not run setup program on this machine"

try it again - prolly just a minor glitch

"could not run setup program on this machine"

opened the DVD tray... put the disk back in, ran setup and it worked just fine

just about gave me a heart attack hahaha

You probably thought it was those convoy's revenge or something

When you get a warning like that, you can feel like throwing the computer out of the window!

As long as it isn't the early signs of a weakened/ageing laser and just a case of computer lag or a piece of dust on the disc then fine.

Good luck
