Problem installing NOLF.

[Starik-Bob]

I am trying to install No One Lives Forever. When I put in my CD, auto startup should start but instead it gives me the weird message or when I try to go and open the CD itself and try to run the setup it gives out same thing. It worked fine before but now it's no go.

I have a P4 1.7, 512 ram, and ATI Radeon 9200SE.
Help anyone?

Still no go. :(

It didn't show up for me the first time around. Don't have a clue for that one other than the knowledge base.

NOLF...how old is this program/game? What version of windows are you running?

I recently received this same message when screwing around and trying to install Encarta '96 on XP Pro. The problem is that many 16 bit programs aren't compatable with 32 bit or higher OS'.....and vice/versa. The resolution is to either set up a duel-boot scenario on your computer or see if there's a patch / version of NOLF for 32/64 bit OS'.

NOLF installs fine on my PC. I have XP Pro with SP2. It was working fine too when i had SP1. Soda has XP pro with SP1 and we use the same NOLF CD only it works for me but not for him.
