omega_c Posted February 19, 2007 Share Posted February 19, 2007 Ok, three things: 1) Use a soft cloth and rub it from the center out. 2) Don't abuse the smileys 3) Please edit your posts, rather than reposting. There is an edit button in the top right of your post. Thanks.

Justin Posted February 19, 2007 Share Posted February 19, 2007 This error is 99.99% of the time due to warez. My guess is that you're installing off a burnt CD. If this is so, buy the game. If not, my apologies to you. Moved from VC PC Chat to VC Troubleshooting.

omega_c Posted February 19, 2007 Share Posted February 19, 2007 OOOOO THANK YOU. Oh yeah, not to sound like a mod (I'll leave that to Fuzzy), but please don't post in caps or with a lot of exclamation points.

damian001 Posted February 21, 2007 Share Posted February 21, 2007 (edited) This error is 99.99% of the time due to warez. My guess is that you're installing off a burnt CD. If this is so, buy the game. If not, my apologies to you. Moved from VC PC Chat to VC Troubleshooting. I actually have the game disc back from 2003. I tried to install VC on my new laptop I bought a few weeks ago and I got the same error. It's actually a dirty CD =\ Well its a good thing that I can == the content here has been removed as it falls under our no warez rule=== . Now it works fine Edited February 22, 2007 by Spuds725 Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/267656-gta-installaion-error-x/#findComment-4062034 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spuds725 Posted February 22, 2007 Share Posted February 22, 2007 (edited) I edited your post No Warez-- although you say you bought the game, your description bypasses the normal install method and could be abused... and so is not allowed Edited February 22, 2007 by Spuds725 Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/267656-gta-installaion-error-x/#findComment-4064646 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mindfreak80 Posted April 8, 2010 Share Posted April 8, 2010 (edited) GTA Vice City Installation Error. 'Component transfer error'. Hey guys. I recently downloaded GTA Vice City for PC and burned the installation files to two disks. First of all I put in one of the disks and everything goes well. The installation wizard opens up and I selected the language I wanted, then it loads and it says 'Welcome to the InstallSheild Wizard for Grand Theft Auto Vice City' and I click 'Next'. Then it says to accept or deny the license agreements. I click accept. Then it comes up with 'Customer Information'. It says you have to provide 'User Name' and 'Company Name'. All I just do is type my first name and again in the 'Company Name'. I click 'Next' and then it says to install the GTA Vie City Radio Station. I accept it then it says 'Ready to install the Program'. I finally click 'Install' and it comes up with one bar. About 3 seconds later an error box comes up saying 'Component Transfer Error' Edited April 8, 2010 by Mainland Marauder Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/267656-gta-installaion-error-x/#findComment-1059862788 Share on other sites More sharing options...
