installed WC3 FROZEN THRONE

[Guest]

this is very frustrating. what is wrong with vista? i've always had warcraft
III Frozen throne on my computer but just got vista. the original warcraft 3
Reign of Chaos installs and runs fine. when i go to install the frozen
throne, it gets to about 25% and then stops. just stops....i have to
control/alt/delete end task to get it off my screen. after wards, not onaly
does the frozen fail to install but wc3 reign of chaos won't work anymore. it
says this applicatinn failed to start because mss32.dll could not be found
(even though the mss32.dll file is infact in the warcraft 3 reign of chaos
folder). if i reinstall wc3 reign of chaos, then reign of chaos will work
again. but frozen throne will NOT install no matter what.

How's that CD looking? Any noticeable scratches our gouges on the bottom?

If your CD looks scratched to hell you might just go get another one, or
look up "banana CD scratch fix" on google.

If it's not your CD try installing the game on another system if you have
access to one. Possible your CD drive is having issues.

From what you describe it doesn't sound like a Vista problem, just something
wrong with either your computer hardware or the CD itself.

Best of luck.

I have exactly the same promblem ... I bought my computer yesterday with
vista... And I can install wc3 reign of chaos but I cant log into battle net
... because the patch is missing.. and miss32.dll file is gone ... But the
file is in the warcraft folder... And when I try to install wc3 frozen and
throne it stops around on 25 % of the instaliton.... The CD have no
scratches.. I have try to re-install the warcraft but id dosn't work...

i'm experiencing the same prob. can any1 help pls??

Nope, because you didn't include the original message and this is usenet,
so unless we have access to the forum or the original message (I only keep
7 days worth) on this "forum", then no, we can't help ya.

Best bet is to post a new message, include specific problems, specific
system specifications (every computer is different, usually), etc, and
someone will specifically come along to laugh at this post because I used
itterations of specific like 20 times in one paragraph.
