hello smile.gif

 

i've recently tried to install vice city on my new vista machine, however i can't get it to work. each time I try installing it i get an error saying:

The request could not be performed because of an I/O

 

Any ideas or solutions to why this is happening? mercie_blink.gif

 

btw, here is the screenshot of the component tranfer error:

Wait, before we get started: all this time the game hasn't been installed yet? When did you buy the game?

 

The error message simply means the disc is damaged. However, if you remembered of installing it on another hard drive/OS/computer - all you have to do is to copy and paste the files for Vice City, and move it to the newer computer!

 

What's so hard about taking care of discs!?

lol.

 

well actually it isn't my game. it is my friend's (u may think that i am lying to cover my self--but seriously it is'nt mine.) the disc is somewhat scratched but i think it should still be playable!

 

i didn't have any games on my new computer so i thought of borrowing.

anyways....there is no way to play it right?

Hmm... NOPE

 

Buy it or find some way of "buying" it. You are on your own! biggrin.gif

 

But dude, the GTA Triple Pack costs less than $40 for PC!!! What's the problem?

GTA Vice City does work on vista. It doesn't say, but it still can be played. My friend has vista and vice city works fine for him.
