GT: FatalxXxFrenzy -Check out my fileshare!! Map titled "Lagoon"

Trying to reinstall this game for the first time in a wow... Get this message before anything pops up. An error windows pops up and says that there are files missing from the installation directory that are needed.

I'm on windows 7.

Any help is appreciated.

Now, in the quantum moment before the closure, when all become one. One moment left. One point of space and time.

I know who you are.

You are Destiny.

Make sure the game is uninstalled and travel to your Program Files folder:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Games\Halo
Copy the folder as a backup and place it elsewhere before we begin. Delete the "Halo" folder (which is the game) and try and reinstall Halo.

I'm not sure if this will work or not, but it's worth a try (remember to back up "Halo" before deleting!). If that fails, run setup.exe as an Administrator (right click> Run as Administrator).

Hope it works :)
