I recently got my laptop restored (OS upgrade problem) and got it upgraded to Windows XP Pro. I had Halo reinstalled on it before, but it got erased since everything got all messed up. I've been trying to reinstall, but it always stops at 93% when copying the map file for Longest. I've never really had any problems with Halo PC in the past...please reply asap.

eMachines M6805
AMD Athlon 64 3000+ (1.8 Ghz, 1600 Mhz front side bus speed)
512 MB RAM
AIT Radeon 9600 w/ 64 MB of RAM
Windows XP Pro
(it also has a Gateway bios now)

no, it just stops copying at 93%. I'll try cleaning it, though.
