    Yeah I didnt get a reply either from them... But I honestly think that getting the files of other places wont work as of the protection on them, (same cd key and so forth). Have you tried turning off your firewall? And install from harddrive is a better option, plus its faster to install the game, if its the first copy of the game you have I would return it right away, try with the new one, i was on my third copy before it worked! :) (just went to different shops of the same brand chain)

    No can do mate, it pops out a window that freezes the hole install thats the thing... I dono, went back to the shop the guy said they had loads of returns for the game he he, but yeah could get my money back just a new copy AGAIN, a third one that comes up with the same issue.......

    Actually! Jon you might be on to something, today thought it give it one more time reinstalling it, cleaned out EVERYTHING to do with arma1 and 2, just emply, nothing i dont need even internet files deleted, turned off my fire wall, moved the files to the hard drive and installed it from there, went off to watch a movie while the install was running came back after, install COMPLETE!!!!!!!! YEAH!!! 3rd disk and over a week later but seems to be finaly done, just to see if will actualy play now!

    New Ideas?!

    Hmmm, I donno, im trying the harddrive method with running it as admin, see if it work, if not return it and just wait for the game of the year eddition or gold (whatever it will be called), quite dissapointed at the quality from bis/505

    What do you mean "cleaned it"?

    And again I got the same error of doom message!

    Just an Idea! If to download the demo, and copy over the uninstall files, could that work???

    So theres no point for me to return it and get a new copy then??? GREAT!

    Can't belive it waited so long for this to come out and now its so bugy that even the install cant work, but as far as saying the UK version doesnt work cant be true, I mean thats a massive screw up, the amount of returns that would be, its possible but at a huge cost.....

    So does any news on how to fix it (except for buying the US version), or are they going to re-reliease it all fixed or something completely different?

    Thanks, Phil

    Hi there,

    I pre-ordered ArmA 2 from a well known UK shop, it arrives on day of release (19/06/09). However when I try to actually install the game, it goes brilliantly well, except for the very last part, it’s on about 99% completion when a window pops up saying that it can’t find/missing file “Uninstall.exeâ€, at this point the hole install freezes and once click on “ok/ X†it just shuts down. I’ve repeated the process over 3 times now and it’s the same thing over and over….

    I explored the files on CD, and it seems that it’s all there (all of the uninstalling files anyway). Could anyone please help? What should I do, it there a way to fix this or should I return the game, swap it for a new copy?

    Thanks very much for your time, Phil

    P.s. I apologise in advance if this has been repeated before, but i have looked and looked and looked, without finding much on my issue.

    P.p.s. I have a high end pc, used for graphical work, so I don’t believe it’s the problem with my spec.
