Hi guys

I recently built a new PC and have decided to get back into BF1942. Having a bit of trouble installing the Complete Collection. The Installer keeps failing and popping up the above error. I’ve tried with two different CD-ROM drives, connected by IDE (with a USB adapter) and SATA. I’ve also downloaded a digital copy of the game and I’m getting the same error.

DirectPlay is enabled, I’ve also followed this video https:// youtu.be/u8ouwqVuAT8

I know there’s advice about troubleshooting the game playing but they all tend to involve changing things in the installation folder.. which doesn’t excite because I can’t get that far..

I get: Choose your language > Install screen with logo > Allow app to make changes > Then it fails, Unhandled Exception - server threw an exception.

Any advice?
