Comment: Hey, i have this weird / REALLY annoying problem. I try to install Midnight Club 2 and everytime i do it gets to pretty much the end and then tells me that the wrong volume is in the drive. then i can cancel, try again, or continue. if i tell it to continue it almost finishes the installation and it asks if i want to add a shortcut to the desktop and then after that i still get that error message popping up repeatedly until finally i get this final error message. its error number 0x80040707 and once i get that it deletes all of the files that it just placed on my hard drive and everything that i just did has become a waste. :-D any help welcome.. !!

Reply: (edit)ya know.. this is never going to make sense to me. well, i may just think that b/c i stayed up all night but shouldn't my mind be sharper? thats what they tell me at least .. but i was searching up my error and clicked on a link that sent me to a bioware(?) forum and it was talking about baldur's gate 2 i believe and it had people having what i believe to be is similar problems and it had a link to download some installer update off microsoft. http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/release.asp?ReleaseID=17344 i downloaded it .. installed it, it was like a 1.4 meg file...tried reinstalling again and things went smooth as a babys bottom...and i guess it said it was for Win NT 4 but i have WinXP Pro and it worked. go figure..
