Whenever I open setup.exe to install Roller Coaster Tycoon 2, a message pops up: [color=\"#ff0000\"]Setup.exe has generated errors and will be closed by windows. You will need to restart the program. An error log is being created.[/color] Like the one here: http://rubenlaguna.com/wp/wp-content/uploa.../11/cygwin4.png (http://\"http://rubenlaguna.com/wp/wp-content/uploads/2007/11/cygwin4.png\")
So I check drwtsn32.log. I find a part which I think is my error (Here's a translation): [color=\"#ff0000\"]Application procedures accident occurred mistakes:
Application procedures: (pid = 1424)

How much room on the harddrive, from what I remember, it's minimal
Video and Sound drivers updated?

I am running DirectX version 4.09.00.0904, wierd the last time I checked it was DirectX 8.0c. Probably because of the restore. I am going to update it. Looks like you found the problem already, I hope.
Free space
=========
Drive C: 431 MB
Drive D: 0.99 GB
Drive E: 238 MB
Since the space is mostly taken up by games, I can easily uninstall a 1 GB game if I really needed to.

I tried updating DirectX by downloading DirectX 8.1 and DirectX End-User Runtime. After both the DirectX version still stays the same!

I am confused. In dxdiag it says the directX version is 4.09.00.0904 but I find out I actually have DirectX 9.0c, which is good, but RollerCoaster Tycoon 2 still doesn't work! It worked before! I checked the minimum requirements and I am sure that the computer passes all of them. Not so sure about the sound. But memory, disk space, Processor... all that is a pass. Another thing is Zoo Tycoon works and it is quite similar. Also I tried two different installation sources both display the same message.
At this point I am concerned about the following:
-Video and Sound drivers not updated
-Some change due to restore
-minimum requirements?
-services
-stack overflow Dr watson
Thats all I can think of right now.

There's your problem... way too small space even if the setup doesn't crash.

Thanks to all that helped! The problem was resolved by reinstalling windows. You can lock/delete the topic now.
