Hi,

Disable your antivirus software. If you still get that error try
copying the CD to your hard drive. If it copies successfully
install the game from there instead of from the CD.

I am pretty sure this is caused by the game not being able to find the temp
directory; older games have trouble with the ridiculously long path to it.
Try extracing the game's setup file beforehand to somewhere like C:\TEMP and
then run setup from there. You could also set your temp variable to
c:\windows\temp instead of the temp folder in your profile directory. I've
had this problem with several older games and demos and this always takes
care of it.
