I need help with the Sold Out software installer.

If I run the CD, and open the installer. I click ''Install game.''
Then it loads but it stops at 99%.

It just returns me to the Sold out main menu.

What is happening?!

EDIT: I found the error it gives just before it goes to the main menu. Here it is.

It says ''The DDL initialisation of a virtual program which can be installed has failed. Choose 'Close' to shut off the program.

EDIT2: I downloaded and installed the DLL file. Though you need to put it in WINNT/system, but that's write-protected and I can't acces it! What do I have to do now?

what the hell is that operating system o_O? a virtualized one? oh i see now =\ tho's errors are pretty f*c*d and hard to solve imo, but are you running a 32bit operating system?

Yeah, I am. So I dunno why it wants to use that one. Though I think I only have to put
S32EVNT.DLL in the system folder, which it won't do. It says it's write-protected. I can't seem to turn this off. I thought of extracting the file with a program to it? Will that work?

This probably helps:
R2. "C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\AUTOEXEC.NT. The system file is not suitable for running MS-DOS and Microsoft Windows applications. Choose "Close" to terminate the application."
In your Start Menu click "Run...", type "cmd" and click OK. In the black prompt box that pops up, type:
copy c:\windows\repair\autoexec.nt c:\windows\system32
If this doesn't work, you can perform the same task manually. Navigate to
c:\windows\repair\
and copy the file "autoexec.nt" to your clipboard. Then navigate to
c:\windows\system32
and paste the file there.

and booting in to safemode may allow you to replace that file if need be.
