Re: Age of empires 3---

Hi hakzor,

Sure do. In fact there's a similar error documented for a painshop install here:
http://www.experts-exchange.com/Operating_Systems/WinXP/Q_21154302.html

And Microsoft has documented that error message in this solution article:
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;839547

Although neither article is specific to AOE III, the overall solution approach does apply.

|| Hi hakzor,
||
|| When running an installation, you receive the following error message:
|| "Error 1603: Fatal Error During Installation" Or you may get the following error:
|| "Error 1603: General Windows Installer engine error. Increase DiskSpace..."
||
|| Here are some reasons and recommended solutions for that issue:
||
|| 1. Click My Computer / Rightclick the Drive & Choose Properties
|| / Run the "Disk Cleanup..." / Next Click the "Tools" Tab and run
|| the "Error-Checking" and "Defragmentation" utilities.
||
|| 2. Clean the Temp Directory. Click START > Run and type:
|| %temp%
|| Select all files and delete them. If a file is locked, skip that file and continue
|| deleting the rest of the files in that directory.
||
|| 3. A certain file on the machine is locked. To fix this:
|| Close all applications running in the background.
|| Reboot your computer.
|| Run the installation again.
||
|| 4. If you are using Windows 95, 98, ME, 2000, or NT, the Windows Installer Service
|| may not be properly installed on the machine. Update the system with the latest
|| Windows Installer Service by following the instructions in
|| http://consumer.installshield.com/kb.asp?id=Q108201
||
|| 5. On Windows NT, 2000, or XP, make sure you have administrative privileges.
||
|| 6. Use Microsoft's Windows Installer Cleanup utility to remove traces of previous
|| installations. http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;290301
