Final Fantasy XI setup error

Ok, I start the install and on the 3rd disk at Rom/4/79.DAT it gives me this error>http://img73.exs.cx/img73/1922/Error3.jpg

See if anyone has had this one before..

 

Thats actually a common issue.

You can:

Try installing from another drive.
Copy the contents of CD3 to another CD.

 

My brother actually got an error like that if I remember correctly... It ended up he just had a bad set of CDs... It supposedly happened a lot (which sucks). I just had to let him use my set of CDs and it worked fine. Hopefully that is not the case for you .

 

Well, what if it is the CDs, What would I be able to do? Think I could take them back where I got them from and they would give me new ones?

 

No.

You would have to get em from the company.

Did you try what I suggested?

I bought two copies of the game, and both of em did it.

 

Tryed to extract it to a folder a few times and it kept saying the files were corrupt so, didn't really get anywhere with that.. Friend said he was going to contact them and bitch at them about it..
