QeL_Droma Posted June 6, 2005 Posted June 6, 2005 I have a microsoft cab format signature problem. I can't install cd2 because it's a zip file,which is converted into cab format. You can install cd2 in windows 98 but not in XP. Can you help please?
dufflover Posted June 6, 2005 Posted June 6, 2005 have you tried other pieces of software - ones that use CAB's ofcourse. That should tell you whether it's your OS or specific to these game files.

QeL_Droma Posted June 6, 2005 Author Posted June 6, 2005 cd1 contains a cab format file but i can install the first cd, but i cant install the second cd becaouse it says that i need a microsoft cab format signature.
w666tvr Posted June 7, 2005 Posted June 7, 2005 Have you tried the advice from LucasArts for installation problems after cd 1 in their forums? The thread is here. "We were hoping we could bring the Xbox platform into December but didn't want to make the formal announcement until we knew an earlier ship date would not compromise the quality of The Sith Lords," says Producer Mike Gallo.
QeL_Droma Posted June 7, 2005 Author Posted June 7, 2005 I read the whole text,but it didn't solve my problem because i install the game 2 weeks ago without problem. The problem accured after i reinstall windows again. It is not a cd problem
w666tvr Posted June 7, 2005 Posted June 7, 2005 If you haven't had any problems installing other software from CD-ROM after reinstalling windows, then, sad to say, it does sound like a CD problem - the fact that you have installed before not withstanding. Is the surface of the CD scratched or marked in any way? Even fingerprints could cause a problem. Have you tried cleaning the CD with a soft cloth? Copying the contents of the CD to a folder on your hard drive - as the LucasArts post suggests - might just get around the problem, after all. "We were hoping we could bring the Xbox platform into December but didn't want to make the formal announcement until we knew an earlier ship date would not compromise the quality of The Sith Lords," says Producer Mike Gallo.
QeL_Droma Posted June 7, 2005 Author Posted June 7, 2005 There is a little scratch on the cd, but it was there when i install the game first time. I think i can't install it because i missed something to install to my computer i am downloading driver updates.
QeL_Droma Posted June 7, 2005 Author Posted June 7, 2005 i read that sp2 helps me to open cab files. Has anyone load sp2 or send me a link that i can directly download it. I tried microsoft's site,but i couldn't download it.
w666tvr Posted June 7, 2005 Posted June 7, 2005 This is the full Windows XP Service Pack 2, all 260+MB of it. There are instructions further down the page for using windows update to do it, if you'd rather not download the full "all-in-one" package... "We were hoping we could bring the Xbox platform into December but didn't want to make the formal announcement until we knew an earlier ship date would not compromise the quality of The Sith Lords," says Producer Mike Gallo.
