So after failing to work p99 on my mac i bought a new pc which has arrived, I have the 5 disk eq titanium instalation on my desktop and its called everquest titanium and plan on following this when its installed:
http://www.project1999.org/forums/showthread.php?t=28335

I have disabled all antivirus

BUT theres a problem, im running windowsvista 64 bit I think...

it says firstly that daemon tools is blocked by compatibiliy issues, soooooo I downloaded deamon tools from the website and that has instaled ok, but then the instruction on the read me are not valid are they?

So anyway i fiddle around and drink more beer cos this is giving me a headache. and follow the instructions as best i can on this new version of deamon tools i have. i get to autoplay BD-ROM Drive (J:) EQ_TITANIUM_1 and it asks if i want to run instal .exe so i do.

Goodness happens and the eq desktop opens up looking like a normal installing game


it says choose destination location

C:\program files (x86)\sony\everquest

fine i say NEXT!

one more NEXT!

now its installing

Computer says, setup needs the next disk. Please insert disk 2.... so i browse for CD2 under everquest titanium and choose that path is C:\users\administrator\desktop\everquest titanium\CD2


THEN it tells me "setup could not find a file on the specified path or disk. Please check that the proper disk is insertd or specify a new path"


ARRRRGGGG!! help please! $100 to anone that can get this to work for me guaranted!

When you get to the "insert disc 2" message, you just mount up the Disc 2 image (in the same place where you mounted disc 1). Don't open anything on it. Then click next or OK, after disc 2 is mounted.

You shouldn't be opening any files after you begin install.

And you should only be using 1 virtual device to do this.

you only need to mount one disc at a time. the installation will pause and wait for you to "insert the next disc"

reached limit of virtual drives!!!

So remove the virtual drives you used for the previous discs. Only need to mount 1 disc at a time.
