I finally solved the problem. And I was right about needing to delete the journal entry. The console command I used was SetJournalIndex. It basically sets the journal to whatever index you want. Since I needed to set the quest completely back, I put it to zero: SetJournalIndex "A2_1_MeetSulMatuul" 0 ...

I think I may have figured out a way to fix my game. Since the problem is almost certainly the result of having a journal entry that I should not yet have, if I'm able to delete it, the problem should be resolved. I need to delete journal entry A2_1_MeetSulMatuul 2. I know, to add it, you open up ...

Morrowind: Caius not acknowledging quest (possible spoiler)

I'm having a problem with The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind and hope someone can help me resolve it. Basically, Caius Cosades won't acknowledge the completion of the Ashlander Informant quest in which I have to meet Hassour Zainsubani and return with his notes. When I return to Caius to speak to him ...

After days of trying to get this game to install I can gladly say that I succeeded. For anyone who might have this problem, this is how I finally got the game to re-install:

Since I couldn't get the game to install from the splash screen I tried to install the game from the hard drive by copying ...

Oh well sorry if I cant help... maybe useing wonderfullIcon next time you install something would be a good idea ^^ that program keeps track of everything you install so it is easier to uninstall again.

Yeah, I recently downloaded some clean uninstall programs. Wish I had done so before I had ...

Nah, actually I have Windows XP Home Edition. And, as far as I know, only Windows XP Professional Edition gets the 64-Bit version.

Okay, I finally got setup.exe to run. Instead of running the CD off of the CD-ROM I decided to copy all of the files into a folder on my desktop (which I named "VTMB_1") and run setup.exe from there. When I ran it from that location there was no error message and the game was properly installing ...

[QUOTE=mr_sir]i'm not sure if this would work, but maybe you could get a copy of just the install file off someone (i'd be willing to send mine if you like) and then see if it would work with that instead of the install file on your cd. not sure if it would recognise that it needs to get the files ...

The activision support site might have one or more reports/solutions on this issue, installation problems are common enough.

I checked the Activision support site, found no solutions that helped, and so contacted them with a report of my problem along with an attachment of my DxDiag information ...

Planet Vampire lists the solution offered by Activision [url="http://www.forumplanet.com/planetvampire/topic.asp?fid=9656&tid=1571868&p=1#17614579"]here[/url]. Unfortunately, it didn't help me.

If you attempted to reinstal, the installer might have recreated it's folder and trying to place it back might have failed without you noticing. Try moving/copying al the {} subfolders back into the InstallShield Installation Information folder, or you may get into trouble with other installations ...

Yeah, that's actually one of the first things I did. The disk is in perfect shape and looks exactly the same way it did when I bought the game.

On the advice from someone I temporarily removed InstallShield Installation Information folder (as well as the InstallShield folder) and placed them in a different location. Before I re-located it, I noticed it had several subfolders like the one you described. However, now that I've placed it (and ...

I've checked the Program Files folder pretty thoroughly and there's no folder for the game there -- or anywhere on my PC actually. I'm starting to think that the problem may be with the installer itself.

Unable to reinstall game - please help

I'm hoping someone here can help me. I tried re-installing Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines and noticed that the splash screen didn't give me an "Install" option despite the fact that I'd previously uninstalled the game. Instead, the "Play" and "Uninstall" options were listed. But when I'd click ...
