Trains 2012 won't install

[hiltoncam]

Can anyone help me? I have Trainz 2006, 2009 and 2010 installed on my computer. It's a laptop with a Radeon HD4330 512mb graphics car with 4 gigs of RAM running on windows vista.

I just got Trainz 2012 and when installing, it takes 3 hours and when installing each bulletin file, it comes up with this message ---------------------------
Error
---------------------------
C:\Program Files\N3V Games\TS12\Builtin\ts12h.ja

An error occurred while trying to read the source file:
Data error (cyclic redundancy check)

Click Retry to try again, Ignore to skip this file (not recommended), or Abort to cancel installation.
---------------------------
Abort Retry Ignore
---------------------------

If I click ignore, it carries on with the next bulletin and after an hour, I get the same message for that file. This is rediculous surely it doesn't take this long to install the game.

I have problems with Trainz 2010 as well - ever since trying to update that game, it doesn't work anymore and I uninstalled and re-installed and now it doesn't work at all. The dashboard comes up, but I can't select any routes or edit anything. Not to mention, I've lost all my routes I created.

Can anyone help?

thanks

This may indicate a corrupt sector of your HDD. Try performing a defrag and a chkdsk.

This may indicate a corrupt sector of your HDD. Try performing a defrag and a chkdsk.

In your newer thread "TRAINZ SUCKS", you mentioned that you ran the defrag. Did you run chkdsk?

1) Press the Windows button and click "Computer".
2) Right-click on your local disk drive and click "Properties".
3) Navigate to the "Tools" tab.
4) Under "Error-checking", click "Check now...".
5) Make sure both checkboxes are selected, then click Start.
6) If prompted, restart your computer to begin the error scan.
7) Wait up to 6 hours for the scan to finish.
8) When you return to your Windows desktop, you may get a disk scan report. If possible, save the details in a Notepad file or as a .log file.
9) Try installing Trainz again.

Looking at the error message, the problem is one of two things:

1.Faulty or damaged DVD disc.
2.Incomplete or damaged download.

The error is very specific.

An error occurred while trying to read the source fileata error (cyclic redundancy check)

That error message sometimes indicates a faulty DVD drive as well, do you have problems with it with other material?
