Instaling Problem....

<div class="IPBDescription">Can't get my NS to install</div> When I click to run the installation program, it goes fine until it read to a part which says "You need version 1.1.1.0 of Half Life or 1.3 of CS retail". I tried to upgrade my Half-Life, but it says that it's up to date. I also tried it with my CS Retail (i bought a pack with 4 Hl games in it), but the same thing happens.

Could some one plz help me!!! <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Are your copies of HL or CS installed from CD, or were they just copied onto your PC from another PC?

    Also, do you have both CS and HL installed at the same time?

    further on what MonsE said

    if you have both instaled where are you trying to install it to?

    I would also suggest removing one of the 2 if you have both (preferable CS retail due to some bugs with compatability with mods and the general pointless ness of it <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->)

    Yes, I have installed both Half-Life and CS Retail. And they are original and from CDs. I think I found the problem, but then anoter one appeared. The game says that I need CS Retail 1.3, or Half-Life 1.1.1.0. I checked my
    Half-Life version and it is 1.1.0.8. I tried to update my my Half-Life version with two programs. One from which I downloaded from Sierra, which after completed (takes about less than 2 seconds, so i thought it was wrong) it says I was updated to the latest version (OBVIOUSLY it wasn't). And I also tried to update by the Half-life update software which came with the game. but here, it says my internet conection is invalid and to change it. When i saw this i said "WTH?!", since I had no idea on what it meant and what to do.
    Now, I know that this would be for a Half-Life tech forum, but I'll post it here since I just wanna update to play NS. HOW DO I GET THIS UPDATE TO GO?!?!? I mean, I'll soon shot the computer!!! <!--emo&::asrifle::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/asrifle.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='asrifle.gif'><!--endemo-->

    You can download the full 1.1.1.0 patch for HL <a href='http://www.fileplanet.com/files/50000/57317.shtml' target='_blank'>here</a>.

    Should you choose to use CStrike Retail, you can download that patch <a href='http://www.fileplanet.com/files/60000/62470.shtml' target='_blank'>here</a>.

    Happy fraging! <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Thanx for the info. Torak, but, uh.... well..... the site you told me to go to download is not free. I mean, it's FilePlanet and to get what I want I need to subscribe, and I'm not exactly whilling to do that.
    Ain't there any other way to download this upgrade? <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'><!--endemo-->

    PS: Sorry if I'm being a pain in the a**, but it's that I'm a total noob on on-line games. <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif'><!--endemo-->

    You don't have to subscribe, it will just take longer to download. Scroll down the page you will see free download sites.

    Sorry, sorry, sorry, and sorry. Sorry for being such a pain on this, but I still have one more problem. <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Well, found the program and downloaded it already. Thanx Torak!! But now, one more problem. You guessed it!! What do I do with the program?? It doesn't open alone, so I suppose you need to add it to the CS folder or something?? Plz, helpo me out here, and I promise, I won't bug anyone about this again (well, only if I find another problem, hehehe)

    Thank you for everyone who answers this!!

    They are both exe's, if they don't run then somehow your download got corrupt try and download them again. When you run them they should automagically update CStrike or HL. Once downloaded just double click on them.

    No need to appologise, we were all newbies once. <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif'><!--endemo-->
