Help!
on Thursday, April, 29, 2004 7:46 PM

I want to install the v1.030 patch, but it gives me this error:

Setup has detected a problem with your existing TRON 2.0 installation. This can occur if
a Windows "Wrong Volume" error stops the initial game installation from completely
finishing. This can result in problems updating or uninstalling the game. The text
below outlines steps to repair the installation. These steps can be copied to a Notepad
file for reference after this Update's installation is aborted.

To completely remove the existing TRON 2.0 installation:

-Delete the root TRON 2.0 directory. The default path is
C:\Program Files\Buena Vista Interative\TRON 2.0.

-From the Start menu, select Run, type in "regedit" (without the quotes) and then hit
OK to open the registry editor. Using the left pane, explore to the following two keys
and delete them:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\
Uninstall\{FC272B66-8372-49EF-A642-28CAD2B9EAC9}]
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Monolith Productions\Tron 2.0]
To reinstall TRON 2.0 and successfully complete the installation:

-Disable any anti-virus software prior to installation. The anti-virus software can be
enabled again after installation is complete.

-Install TRON 2.0 as usual. If the "Wrong Volume" error appears at the end of the
installation, leave the error message on screen, eject CD2 from the drive, insert CD1,
wait 15 seconds for the CD drive to read CD1 and then select the Try Again option from
the "Wrong Volume" error message's pop-up window. Be careful not to select Continue as
this will result in another faulty installation.

After the steps above are completed, Update 2 can be installed.

Note that I have done the aforementioned steps. I am running a Windows XP Media Center edition PC as an Administrator.

Unless you have some specific reason not to, install the Unofficial v1.042 patch instead. Not only will it bring you up to the latest version, but the installer for the v1.042 patch isn't as flaky as in the Official ones.

Just note that if you have any saved games from Single Player, they will be useless once the game is patched to v1.042.
