Have you tried to login as Admin and install it?

i am logged in as admin..everytime i try to install it, it will pause at 38% and say something about "cant transfer movie" or something like that over. so i dont know what to do. some help would be appreciated. thank you

ok, so this is what it says. "A problem occurred when trying to transfer the file 'E:\data\movies\MoviesonlineHome.vp6' from the media". i dont know what to do after this. will someone lend a helping hand please. would be much appreciated. thank you

Have you tried using Windows XP compatibility mode?

I am trying to also get the game running under Vista. Will let you know what I find out.

Ok, I found this on the EA support site.

which basically says try using XP compatibility and Admin rights.

Ok, I got it working with the help of this web site and download.

Good luck to you getting the game working also with Vista!
