e:\util\deogg.exe Abnormal program termination

[jdhigby]

I had to reinstall windows XP, SP1. I am now trying to install the original version of Lockon Modern Air Combat, and it fails during the unpacking of the sounds files with E:\util\deogg.exe "abnormal program termination." Any ideas would be appreciated.

 

Windows XP, SP1

Dell Intel Pentium 4, 2.8 Ghz.

768 megabytes of RAM

ATI Radeon 9250 (256 meg memory)

40 gig HD.

Whats the whole error message? or is that it

e:\util\deogg.exe Abnormal program termination

 

In addition, to the above error, it shows "runtime error."

Try patch up after installation.

 

and check your CD for scratches.. <<- Definitely do that - Could be a smudge, just give it a clean anyway. Not TOO rough ;)

I think what he is saying is that he cannot install it becuase it will not unpack off the cd right. If he has checked for scratches i am betting the disc is a waste and it needs to be replaced. I dont know if you can return it for a new one through where you bought it, ED, or whatever.

In the UBI forums there was the same error when unpacking sounds, it was a simple smudge.

On the off chance that the installation as a whole isn't aborted and removed, I suppose it's merely a matter of finding an ogg-decoder and turn the files back into .wavs... but it HAS been a fairly long time since I last met an installer that didn't clean up after itself. Bad manners, actually, leaving things around, but sometimes you won't really mind.
