It seems i cant install my 1946 game from dvd cose install option isnt highlited in the dvd menu.The game was installed few times allready,but the surface of the dvd is clean and without scratches.Is there some limit in install atempts from dvd?Perhaps the trick is on my end after all.If so,i would be very greatfull for any help.PS,rig is running with XP, allready tried disc defrag,reg.clean, safe mod boot ,etc.Thank You in advance, and sorry if my english grammar is bad as i think it isjavascript:emoticon('')

Check where IL2 was installed. If the unistall is hi-lited use that to REMOVE all of your old
Install. Besure to move any or all mods -skins- or any thing else you want saved.
After the disk UNINSATALLS the game you should be able to reinstall it.

Well ,that did not work.When i run uninstall from dvd its giving me weird "error 1606 could not access network location".Except UI 1.1 AND 1.2 that where never installed into game there is nothing related to il 2 left in the system,allso drives are defragmented and checked for errors .Well, im offitialy out of ideas :? :-? :???:

on your dvd should be a setup called "a" , run that.




EDIT: FIRST :lol:

go to my computer and open the drive the DVD is in to look at the files.

Double click the a.exe

it should launch with out the main GUI

Easy

Have you gone into your program files and looked to see if there is a Ubisoft folder?IL2-1946 installs into this folder ,go into it and make sure the 1946 folder is gone, if it isn't remove it ,then try to reinstall.

[EasyRider]

the a.exe will work with or without a Ubisoft /IL-2 folder
even without the folder it will pretend to unistall what is not there :lol:
then it will install

When i double click on "a exe" im getting the same error "error 1606 could not access network location.
Ubi soft folder in program files is empty.
Thank you guys for your fast replyes.
I just hope to ge back in the air soon

Error 1606 is a common Windows error. Error 1606 is usually caused by missing system files, wrong system settings or a corrupted registry file. Run a registry scan to check for registry errors & other system problems. 90% of the time this will fix the cause of the error.Typed Error 1606 into Google this is what I found and there does seem to be a fix for it.

Thx guys for the fast assistance.i decided for the fast and less painfull workaround.
Messing with the reg files is not my thing.
Just installed il2 on friends pc ,burned on dvd, and than copied it on my rig
installed 408, UI 1.2 ,and everything looking nice and smooth.

See ya in the skies! ~S~ all! WOOOHOOO!!!
