Also the AR is actually good in CQB now and no longer a glorified baseball bat.

First: what are his system specs?
Without those, we can't help you much.

to be honest i dont know my friends system specs, but i dont understand how system specs come into play in this topic, he was able to install the game when he first got it without any error messages whatsoever, oh and sorry if this post offended you, im just confused why and how system specs are related to this problem...

but ill try to find it out anyways just in case, thnx

don't even bother with his specs.

just go into your halo folder, and run msxmlenu.msi

that may not be the EXACT name, but it's something like that.

It's too late he already tried to re-install, and it is hosed. Make sure you do a complete uninstall first then reinstall. Then download and run the 1.07 patch before you try to run the game.

still, the file i said earlier is on the CD in the cab files. you can still run it.

if halo is still installed, i wouldn't worry about reinstalling it.
