"This build of CD code is for Spearhead. This is an invalid build of CD code. Please fill out the ereg config form to obtain a valid CD code build."

I found this at EA's support site.

Its the exact same error as i get when i try to install nightfire (just replace the word 'spearhead' with 007:nightfire).

The recommended solution is ensuring no compatibility is applied and instructions are for XP.

This does not work for my win2000 nor is their a compatibility being applied.

Why am i getting this error??

it happens with both cd-roms that i have...

I have a geoforce 2 (using the latest offical det drivers)
(with spearhead i had to disable run32.dll to get the installation past crashing. Though i did not get this particular error)


TIA for any positive input/solution :))

finally figured it out.

I had to make a shortcut of the setup file on the desktop. From here i disabled win98 compatibility. The game then installed normally.

I'm not sure why the cd-rom drive is using win98 compatibility.

anyways...YAY! smile
