What is a 112 Error

[thorne1j]

Hi, hope someone can help. Am trying to install a Lego game for my 8 yr old but get a Setup Initialization Error. "setup is unable to decompress and copy all of the program files needed to proceed with the installation. Contact your software vendor. Error 112."

Anything I can do about this or does it have to go back to the shop?

Many thanks.

Hi,

Which Lego game?

Most of the Lego games I know are not compatible with Win XP

Its Lego Chess. It says Operating System: Win 95/98/Me/XP.

Try copying the contents of the cd to your hard drive(my computer, explore cd ,copy, paste yadda yadda ).Sometimes if the disc is slightly fubared it will fail to decompress

You could also try running cdcheck on it

Although you could get weird results on protected cd's sometimes.
