Hi, a few days ago I had a system crash and had to install WinXP Pro SP2 all over.
I had rennie installed and it worked fine, but now when I try to install it it's failing.
I put the (legal)disk into dvdrom and get the install shield (I've got a present for ya.)
I click Install, and then I get an error saying setup made a mistake and has to be terminated. Do you want to report this problem?
My windows is in Dutch version so maybe if I take a screenshot you couldn't read it anyway. CORRECT ME IF I'M WRONG!
I've deleted the Westwood folder in the registery and also cleaned and checked the Rennie disk.
PLZ help me, I've read the forum and there are simular problems to mine but not a good solution.
If you need more info just let me know!
Thanks in advance

I had the same problem with m desktop, it took almost a month before it would attually install. There was nothing specific that i did to make it work that i know of.
Im now having the same problem with my laptop, i can get all the way to the actual installation then it just fails and returns me to desktop.

- Uninstall Renegade
- Backup skins/maps
- Delete Westwood folder
- Delete Westwood registry entries
- Clear Internet Temp files, cookies, etc...
- Download Alternate Renegade Installation
- Reboot
- Install with the Alternate Installation tool
- Update Ren
- No-Cd
- Renguard
- Put back your Skins/maps
And w00t... If that fails too... then I dont know. You could try updating DirectX to 9.0c, and get your latest video card drivers.
Good luck!

This doesn't work either, I've formatted the HD Renegade was on and also the registery. So I don't have an encrypted serial number.
When I type the origenal key it says "runtime error 91"
Don't know what that means??
But anyway THANKS for your help!!

I remember having a problem like this with my first computer i tried to install it on. To remedy the problem, I install the vb6 files it had on disc2.
Let all your wishes be granted except one, so you will still have something to strieve for.
