Hi, I had exactly the same problem when I tried to reload the game on a new hard drive that had only Windows XP on it. I installed Word from Office XP and the game then installed correctly. I don't know if this was chance, or if the game needs Word in order to load. Hope this might help Viper "CarnbY" <carl-erik@herheim.no> wrote in message news:33dfa8d5.0407040421.658efa6a@posting.google.com... > Whenever I try installing C&C Generals Zero Hour I get an error during > installation (error 1305).
