This is a generic error message displayed by InstallShield. There is no way to tell what went wrong without reviewing a log file of the installation process. To generate a log file, bring up the [Start\Run] box and issue the command: “e:\caesar ii 5.00\setup.exe” /v”/L* c:\temp\logfile.txt” Note, change “e” to your CD-Rom drive, and “c:\temp” as necessary for your particular system. If the log file reports an error with the file msxmlx.inf, the installation failed due to a problem installing MDAC 2.8, because a file has been erroneously flagged as “read only”. To correct this problem and permit the installation of CAESAR II, navigate to the c:/windows/inf directory and issue the command “attrib -r msxmlx.inf [Enter]”. Now, restart the CAESAR II installation – CAESAR II should install fine.
