Help! Cannot install game
I've been playing ESO since beta, but I'm now trying to install it on a friend's PC with a boxed copy of the game I bought a while ago but didn't use.
I installed it from the disk. When the launcher tries to download patch files, it seems to loads a few MB but then I get an error message: Reliable source serving corrupt files.
So I thought I'd tried to launch and patch it online. When I download Install_ESO.exe it gets to 99% and stops with 1 second remaining - and stays there.
Any ideas?
Thanks for any help.

Sorry that error massage should be: Reliable source serving corrupt data0

Thanks for your reply, Betahkiin
I did - that's when I get the launcher download stopping at 99%.
However, I think I can get it to run anyway but I then get the message "Zenimax Self-Extractor has stopped working."0 -
Thanks for your input guys but it's moot now.
I realised that I didn't have enough disc space in my C partition although I had plenty space on the drive. So I deleted my D drive partition and extended my C drive. Plenty space now!
But when I rebooted the PC, I got the message "DISKMGR is missing".
Whoops!
My friend is not going to be happy.Edited by michaeljones161b16_ESO on April 18, 2015 4:10PM0 -

Don't install it and your problem is solved. Install some other game; trust me, you'll be happier.0 -
Thanks for your less than helpful advice Talrenos.
As you can see from my previous post, I can't install anything at all now!
But I have been playing ESO since beta so I think I have an idea whether I would be happy or not.0
