Title: ????1??? Autorun installation error Windows XP on mac through Parallels 6
Post by: scipl on May 16, 2011, 09:03:03 PM
Hi, I recently bought the SimCity Box! I received the following:
DISK 1: (https://www.sc4devotion.com/forums/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fimg.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fv257%2Fcranigra%2FPhotoon2011-05-16at23422.jpg&hash=8a5e435e0923e9905cda8f3bf2dbd8a5bb3b6960)

DISK 2: (https://www.sc4devotion.com/forums/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fimg.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fv257%2Fcranigra%2FPhotoon2011-05-16at2343.jpg&hash=e299873796faac8de18662d460f9cf2b07f23cec)

BOTH THESE DISKS SAY ..."AND SIMCITY 4 RUSH HOUR EXPANSION PACK"

I'm having the following errors come up after double-clicking the Autorun file:

Drive shows up: (https://www.sc4devotion.com/forums/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fimg.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fv257%2Fcranigra%2Fpic1.jpg&hash=19b288dccb80ed30d27a4f0a532720631324d485)

Autorun file available on drive: (https://www.sc4devotion.com/forums/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fimg.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fv257%2Fcranigra%2Fpic2.jpg&hash=3a3a7fde4fbb50cce091878512a6deecbdc1dcbe)

????1??? error after double-clicked Autorun file: (https://www.sc4devotion.com/forums/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fimg.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fv257%2Fcranigra%2Fpic3.jpg&hash=5eeb63a4c21a2de661e9a83dcd8730c27b16f7e1)

???????? error after clicking [CANCEL] for previous error message: (https://www.sc4devotion.com/forums/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fimg.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fv257%2Fcranigra%2Fpic4.jpg&hash=000d3c499084236215c3c3ba52a023b64cc8f376)

Other note, if I hit [OK] on the ????1??? error the error doesn't go away, if I hit cancel then a new ??????? error appears, if I then hit cancel on the new error it goes back to the ????1??? error again, if i hit [Yes] on the ???????? error the error box disappears.

I'm running Windows XP on a mac using Parallels 6 software.

Any help is appreciated.

I'm not the expert, but  - have you tried installing the game on a "normal" Windows PC (that is, a PC completely set-up as a windows machine)? Does this give the same result? .. just to exclude the possiblility of your "mac using Parallels 6 software" configuration beeing the problem ..
