CMR3 Install Problems

CMR3 Install Problems

by Jerry Furlon » Mon, 30 Jun 2003 11:45:49

Just installed CMR3 (repeatedly) and cannot get it to run. As soon as the
Codemasters video finishes it dumps me back to the desktop.  At the very end
of the installation process I get two error messages: "Cannot install
Windows Media Format", and "Cannot install Windows Media 8 codecs".  I tried
installing the DirectX components from disc 3, but still had the same
problem.

I'm running:
Dell P4 1.6  256 RAM
XP Home
nvidia gforce 3 ti 200 64MB
SB Live
Any help would be greatly appreciated.  I hate dealing with these
frustrations after waiting for months for this game.  tia

Try reinstalling the Media Player or installing it if it's not installed.

If you have Windows Media Player installed:

You could try downloading the latest MS codecs using Windows Update
or going to http://www.divx.com.
