RTW Reinstall Error...Please Help!!

[cpviggy08]

Hey, everytime I try to reinstall Rome : Total War, I receive a message stating...

Error 1304 .Error writing to file C:\Program Files\Activision\Rome - Total War\Data\Terrain\battlefield\swamp\summer\swamp.tga.dds. Verify that you have access to that directory.

So I looked through my Program Files to see if anything was remaining from the previous uninstall and found that an Activision file was still there, inside being that file listed above even though I had uninstalled the game. I could not remove the file being given the message... Cannot delete swamp.tga: Data error (cyclic redundancy check).

Any help at all would be most appreciated, thanks a lot.

Hi there, read this thread and the link I provide there...

Thanks, but after deleting everything in the registry, I tried deleting the Activision folder from program files and it still says "Cannot delete swamp.tga.dds: Data error (cyclic redundancy check)."

I tried these things, and could not find any of the files that Garbandasar specified.

Have you tried going into safe mode and deleting the file there?
