I just bought Halo PC and while installing it got stuck on 93%, were it was installing longest.map. I got this error saying a encountered a disc error on longest.map. Well see for yourself...here. I've tried installing multiple times and I got the same error. My computer does fit the requirments. Not the greatest though...Windows XP Pro, 1.8 ghz processer, 512 ram, ati 7000 32 mb graphics card, 4 gigs left on HD, direct x 9.0c. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

You're right. Your setup shouldn't prevent you from installing the game (although as it stands right now your GPU will provide for a pretty miserable experience while playing Halo). Something else is wrong. Start by making sure there aren't any scratches or dirty spots on the CD.

I exchanged the game at store at it work. I guess it was just a faulty disc...

@killer chief - it's not my graphics card

@keen - i know it 500 but i do have that money and im willing to spend that much after suffering with my 32mb. plus i might be able to get it at wholesale prive. maybe around 400

Thanx everyone for your help!
