Autorun - Can't Install Game

[Yumi Angel I]

★★ I'm trying to install the Sims on my sister's computer (for the past years - four times) and it's finally failed on me. I can't play Sims on mine because my video card is busted and I'm not ready to buy a $100 video card, again.

On my sister's computer, it pops a window saying;

"A problem has occured when trying to transfer the file 'E:/Autorun/Autorun.bmp' from the media

Do you want to copy the file, or cancel installation"

I tried clicking retry, but it just pops up again. I've even put in 'E:AutorunAutorun.bmp' in the 'Run' box, but that doesn't work either. Is there a way to just avoid autorun?

Help is appreciated! I think I've heard of this problem before, but I guess I'm too dumb to remember how to fix it. Thanks in advance!

Sorry I'm of no help;

I had a problem similar to that because the older computer, a 98, I had just could not read the second disc while installing and kept popping up as an error. I tried over and over and it just wouldn't do anything so I finally gave up and couldn't play the Sims 2 for months because the other computer would barely even start up.

Those were a sad couple of months.

I wish you the best of luck in finding the problem. 3nodding

Edit: Maybe it would help if you put what type of OS it is, many people have had many problems on different Operating Systems.

Your CD may be dirty, scratched, or damaged.

To clean use a dry, soft, clean cloth that is as lint and fiber-free as possible (a clean cotton tee-shirt generally works well). Hold the disk from the center and the edge, and wipe from the center outward. Repeat until you've covered the disk.

You may need to use a disk repair kit. You can purchase these at most computer stores for a relatively low price. These kits can try to fix imperfections in the coating on a disk, which can help if your disk is scratched or otherwise damaged. They come with instructions on how to use them, and may be worth trying.

If non of that works, you'll have to get replacement CD's.
