consider yourself welcomed cool
anyway plz, plz, plz read this thread before posting a problem (i know your not the only 1 guilty of not enough info).
so plz provide a DXdiag.txt and a couple of further questions,
a) is your armada 2 CD in the drive (while installing)?
B ) are you trying to install FO into a fresh folder or one already occupied by a stock (or other modded) A2 install?

aarrrghh  :omg:  dude did you copy/paste that?
when you run dxdiag, click "save all information", then save it somewhere probably the desktop. then upload the .txt file here (it'll come up as a link). i can make heads or tails of this 'cos it has " &nsbp;" all over the place (dont ask what thats all about huh )
also your answer to question 2: dont understand your answer. this should be installed into a fresh clean folder, usually created by the installer itself. DO NOT try to install into an existing A2 directory.

you could've just uploaded it here. anyway here it is to save time.

EDIT: everything seems to be in order from what i can see. althougth that "sound tab2" not being signed, you may want to address this. (a windows update may well take care of that). maybe Doca can find a solution, cos im stumped

no i meant thats what i wanted you to do (upload it here) its quicker to access, plus you dont get a crapload of advertising pop-ups, trying access it.
P.S i already put it up for ya, so others can see if they can help.

EDIT: i know its a long shot but anyway: i've noticed that there is a device connected "WebCamDV Audio" is this an actual web cam or something else (this has the driver name that aint properly signed). if it is a webcam, try disconnecting it or make sure it is completely off (disconnected is better), then try the install again right from the top.

make sure there is no folder called "Star Trek Armada II Fleet Operations" in you activision folder, make sure to put the A2 CD in the drive when setup asks (shouldn't make a difference but you never know)
and also try to make sure any anti-virus software is turned off BEFORE starting the install wizard(dont worry there is no virus in this).

nope, i just asked because someone else reported the same problem using alcohol 120%.

anyway, someone had the same issue, so i will now just quote him and hope that this will help you, as i cannot reproduce the problem here.

its working for some reason
I put in the cd at the last second
so it had to load before it started copying
remeber that in case anyone else has this problrm
