Hi, guys. :)
Three times, now, I have attempted to install the current version of AH on my computer; each time there has been difficulty. Please assist with as much information as you can provide me.
1st attempt:
I downloaded 99% of AH1073.exe; then, my connection to your server failed. Therefore, the download failed.
2nd attempt:
I downloaded the entire file off of the mirror site that is listed on your website.
I tried to install the program, but immediately received the following error message: "Could not initialize installation. (CRC) The parameter is incorrect."
3rd attempt:
I downloaded the entire file off of a private server that one of my squad mates has at his home. I attempted to install the program, but immediately received the following error message: This program cannot be run in DOS mode." (Well, I'm working in the Windows98 environment; not straight-out of DOS; so, I'm a bit confused.)
Any suggestions from the more technically knowledgeable, please? :cool: Thank you!
btw, I'm running Win98; using DirectX 8...if that matters. AH *USED* to work about 6 or 7 months ago on this same computer!?!

Almost certainly you are getting a bad download or some program on your computer is corrupting the install process. (Turn off virus scanners when installing.)
I hate to say it, but try downloading it again from scratch and delete the old files.

Thank you, bloom25 :) It worked on the re-d/l.
