Halo 2 : Failed To Initialize.
Jul 20, 2009I recently got Halo 2,and before I had I had ran a test and it said I met the minimum requirements. When I tried to install it however, it would change my resolution to 800 x 600, the display the message-(Initialization failed.Either insufficient system resources were found to run the game or game data is missing or damaged.Reinstalling the game may fix this problem. When I also try to customize game install,it tells me-Installation cannot be customized after game installation is initialized. I looked at some other threads and tried to update my graphics driver,but it said I had a custom driver installed and trying to install another driver may damage it.

Oct 1, 2009Im a First timer for PC games and Exspeically Halo for PC, but anyways i got this game when i bought my PC from www.cyberpower.com (good PCS) but the game i got with it is a bit confuseing because it tells me to sign in to windows live (first time encountering this site) i know its used for Xbox Live but i do not own one, but i made an account and the game loaded up and :::....
(steps on what it did and i did)
Step1: I Clicked the "live" option
Effect: it told me to choose your Profile, so i did
Step 2: I finally got through all the "join live" registration but yet it keeps asking me NOTE (im online during all this).
Effect: i waited for the windows live registration to pop up and then soon after i pulled the halo game screen back up and it went to full screen it said "sign in to LIVE" so i did and submitted, soon after it said "downloading profile (this could take a few minutes) and, it finally did it and it ASKED ME TO UPDATE HALO 2 or else it will sign me out and as i did it simply told me it was unable to update and told me to check my connection.

Aug 12, 2009would you mind helping me with this minor issue I've been having while playing halo, its been doing it since I've installed it, if you can't help, that's understandable to. Whenever I minimize my game of halo, I can't bring it back up for some reason. It'll show in the upper left hand corner Halo, but it wont come up, I wait forever, and it never comes up, so I end up, closing it out, and ending the game. At first I tried to get used to it, but sometimes my screen will minimize because of updates, and other stuff, and its really annoying because I can't bring back up my game of halo. I tried reinstalling it, but it would still do the same thing, if you can figure out something to fix this,

Jun 2, 2008I bought vista about 6 months ago, I installed it and everything runs OK. Now i want to have XP AND Vista on the same HDD. I know thats possible with disk partition and i did that but the problem is that i can go further with the installation of my XP home. When i start the installation of XP (press Enter to install XP etc) it asks me to choose a partition, i choose the one i made earlier (25GB of total size). It loads the necesary drivers and it says press enter to reboot(or wait 15 secs to reboot automaticaly). Ok here starts my problem: It reboots, but then i see only a runner and nothing more. ( _ )
i wait for about 5 minutes and it still does nothing, and i dont know what to do. I am forced to fix startup with the Vista installation disk but my XP is not installed. I have searched the bloody web (STFW) and i found nothing, only some data i already knew.You are my last chanse guys. I love XP as much as i love Vista but there is there a way have both OSs without problems?
Installing 64 Bit
Mar 26, 2008says you can boot from CD to install Vista 64 however the previous operating system must not be removed prior to install. In my system Win 2k is on a different hard drive than the one I'm installing to. When I start the install process, on the screen where you select the custom option, it says that upgrade is disabled. I assume this means it did not detect my previous OS? I did not continue from this point.
I can install my Win 2k on the hard drive where I wish to install Vista. In the past however, when I had the previous OS on the C: drive and I installed Vista on the same drive Vista would end up on the next available drive letter (i.e. E. Nothing really wrong with this but it's kind of awkward and can't be changed later).

Use some kind of button combination? Or should I just yell at it some more?

Mar 6, 2009I am having problems installing a 2nd hdd into my pc. I know that i have all the right cables. everythings hooked up correctly. Went through BIOS but perhaps I missed a step or steps. I saw the tutorial on here but it didnt really help me. Can someone please walk me through the process? It's a Western Digital SATA hdd. i think the problem might be with my relative unfamiliarity with BIOS and setting the master/slave system up. Also, should I be using two separate, dedicated cords for the hdds or is the doubled lead out from the power source okay? I plan on wiping the hdd i'm installing and using it as separate storage space.

I would like to use an upgrade product such as XP Pro Upgrade, but the MAC won't install the upgrade, it needs a full version. I only need the Win OS to run some applications and to VPN into the office, and I need to put it on two machines, so installing full version of XP pro or Vista would be expensive for only part time use. I would like to know if I installed Vista Home if this would allow me to VPN into SBS 2003, run apps such as Office 2003 and Adobe CS3.

May 27, 2009I've just been offered Windows SP2 via my Windows Update manager. My history on this computer is excellent with regards to updates so I'm inclined to have this update installed. Everything regarding updates is current except for IE-8. My one reservation is that I've declined to update IE-8 in the recent past as I'm a Firefox user and I've seen all the traffic about how cloggy IE has been for some. I tried finding out if Vista SP2 includes IE-8 but am having no luck. Can someone tell me if Vista SP2 includes IE-8? And if so, is there a way to download SP2 but choose not to have IE-8 included.

Mar 10, 2009I know I can only have one registered copy and that's on my computer but is it possible to have a working Vista on a friend's computer but without having to register it? I have the upgrade version of home premium SP1. I remember reading that it's possible to install Vista without registering for a certain amount of time and that the time can be extended. I figure they can't use windows update but I think the Vista HP SP1 by itself is rather stable regardless. I was going to have them use the Windows 7 Beta but it can't be downloaded anymore from Microsoft's site and I don't want to use torrents. They'd have bought Vista themselves by now but with a kid on the way and moving, they can't shell out the dough right now and their comp is acting up.

Apr 26, 2008I read the instructions about installing SP1 and found out that three critical updates are needed before installing. I don't have an internet connection and have been going to friend to download things I need. Then I transfer them on a memory stick and install them. I downloaded the three updates, but then found out that there is a problem on some computers with KB937287, which causes the computer to endlessly reboot. Then it was withdrawn from the MS site. So now I am not sure whether to install any of these or not. Then I posted this question on various forums. One said that I don't need the three critical updates if I am installing the standalone version on SP1 because they are included in that version. Another one said I can't update Vista at all if I don't have my own internet connection. I am not sure what to do
View 4 Replies View RelatedUses All 4GB Of RAM When Installing Software
Mar 23, 2008I have a unique issue. Whenever I install software such as games or various
programs, Vista will take up all 4 Gigs of my RAM, but in Task Manager - it won't show anything taking up anywhere near that much memory. When the install is finished, I usually have to reboot my PC to get it to free up the RAM.
I tried using a RAM Defrag program called Memory Zipper Pro the last time it
happened, and it saved me from having to reboot. I think this may be a memory leak in Vista or Windows Installer. I had made a post on this issue on Overclock.net, but no one has experienced a similar issue on those forums. Also, the issue was happening way before Service Pack 1 was installed. It started sometime last year after Windows Update made an update one time, but I have no clue which update might have caused the issue, especially since I don't know exactly where the Issue is coming from within Windows
