Halo 2 Prob ~,~

[FONT=Palatino Linotype]Installation Instructions:
 1) Extract the archive.
 2) Insert the Halo 2 DVD
 3) Run Startup.exe on the Halo 2 DVD using the included Loader.exe
 Ie.: Loader.exe D:\Startup.exe
 4) Install the game.
 5) Install XLiveRedist1.0.6027.msi and vcredist.msi from the \redists dir on the Halo 2 DVD.
 6) Copy the following files into the directory you installed Halo 2:
 dwmapi.dll, mf.dll, MFPlat.dll
 7) Finished. To play the game, run halo2.exe using the included Loader.exe
 Ie.: Loader.exe "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Halo 2\halo2.exe"


Notes:
 You need to be logged in with an administrator account for Loader.exe to work, since it uses privileged API's. 
 Currently the code for playing the intro and credits movies is unimplemented,
 so if you want to see them you'll have to play them yourself (they're located in \movie).
 I haven't tested the online functionality of the game, it will probably need more attention.

Have fun playing :)
