How long is [User Name] and does it maybe contain 'special characters' like -' or something?
Maybe try and create a new user in Vista, login with the new user name and try to install?

Looks like the LSA setup application isnt unpacking all the necessary setup files into your \_ir_sf_temp_0 folder.
On my Vista SP2 machine, \_ir_sf_temp_0 contains:

If it helps, here's a .zip of the setup files missing from your \_ir_sf_temp_0
You can try running the LSA setup app, then placing these files in \_ir_sf_temp_0 before clicking NEXT on the "Welcome" dialog.

ORIGINAL: SPSMain

The only option that may work is somehow going around the Indigo Rose setup software. Is there a way of copying the program files from the working PC to my laptop, and overcome there serial number issue? Or is there a whole lot of backstage work that can't be so easily copied...

Worth a shot. As far as 'backstage work' you'll also need to use Regedit to export HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Matrix Games\Close Combat Last Stand Arnhem, then copy that to your laptop and merge it into that registry.

I have made a report for you to Matrix.

Had a similar issue with Vista some time ago as well. For what it's worth it's nothing to do with your serial number but something to do with Vista IIRC.

Hi SPSMain,

Are you installing this with a user account with administrator rights? Are you installing to the default path or to a different path? Do you have any third-party anti-virus or security software running during the installation?

Regards,

- Erik
