    Question Rome Total war

    Hello I tried to install Rome total war (3CDs in iso format), but i get this error

    Error: -1603 Fatal error during installation

    For more information, see the Windows Installer Help (Msi.chm) or MSDN

    I wonder if this problem is solvable and if yes, how

    PS: PLEASE HELP

    i've read it but the problem s different. Before ending with the first iso CD, i receive the message, so i can not install it at all.

    I presume it is a legal and bought copy of the game ?

    I meant is it a legal copy that does not require circumventing the installs and such using cracks and other methods ?

    If it isnt then that is not supported here im afraid

    I do own a legal copy and have experienced the same error while trying to install from the discs. They definitely have worked before on other (Windows) computers I owned. Now I'm trying to get them to work on a Ubuntu 11.04 install using WINE 1.2.3
