Alpha Centauri installation never surpasses 35%.....
« on: November 07, 2016, 06:15:37 pm »
On Windows 10 and trying to install Alpha Centauri (the SoldOut edition). Every time I try to install whether I use compatibility modes or not the install always gets stuck at 35% and comes up with the message: "An error occurred during the move data process - 117." Any instructions to install this game on Win 10? Would be much appreciated.

I don't think that's a Win10 problem, it sounds like there's some bad data in wherever you're installing from.  Is it a download or a CD or what?

It's a SoldOut CD.

I wonder if that's a SoldOut DRM problem.  -If you're willing to throw six bucks at the problem, try here: https://www.gog.com/game/sid_meiers_alpha_centauri

Until now the battle had been proceeding smoothly. The enemy was outflanked and had been driven from the reactor housing, but against the reactor itself the matter canons were strangely ineffective. Rounds simply-stopped-in mid air.
