I'm unable to use Halo CE if I add other maps to the map folder. If I add a customized map, I get a "Gathering Exceptions-A file is corrupted(h2-lockout)".
I've tried running it in admin mode and normal, it never works...

Slaying noobs since 2007.

So they are renamed to the original maps name right?

It's the hard heart that kills...

I get this error also running Halo Custom Edition on my Vista machine (AMD 64 3400, 2 gig RAM, 6800 GS SLI, Vista 64 bit Home Premium). It's kinda annoying since some of the SP maps looked interesting to play...

"Gathering Exceptions-A file is corrupted(h2-lockout)"..
This error message tells you exactly what is wrong. The map file "h2-lockout.map" in your C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Halo Custom Edition\maps folder is corrupt and unusable. Remove it. Download it again.

All the maps at Halo maps have been tested before they are placed on-line. to see what we test for and how we test see:
