Problem installing San Andreas - notepad - 27.04.2012

Hello samp fellas.

I've been inviting many friends of mine to join samp so we can start our own server and play a bit for fun.

The problem is one of them can't install San Andreas.

Here are the errors:

Код:

An error (-5011 : 0x8000ffff) has occurred while running the setup.
Please make sure you have finished any previous setup and closed other applications.
If the error still occurs, please contact your vendor: Rockstar Games

Error Code:    -5011 : 0x8000ffff
Error Information:
>SetupDLL\SetupDLL.cpp (551)
PAPP:Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas
PVENDOR:Rockstar Games (http://www.rockstargames.com/)
PGUID:D417C96A-FCC7-4590-A1BB-FAF73F5BC98E
$10.50.0.125
@Windows XP Service Pack 1 (7601) BT_OTHER 0.0

We've tried with my disk and we've tried to download it, and the problem is still there.

I've ******d and it seems a problem on the windows, but I don't know how to solve it.

Any tips/ideas or solutions?

Thank you.

Edit:

It is Windows 7.

I hope that you do realize that suggesting people to use cracked San Andreas installations might get you banned?

Well we have original copies of SA, so in my opinion there is no problem downloading a cracked version since the original one is not working properly.

We still need help to solve the windows problem.

This could be related, or the program could fail at detecting newer OS..
I'm not really sure, just seemed a little weird

We should be using compatibliticompatibilitymod to install gta sa.
Well try this: Run the install, on the compatibility mode for windows vista, and execute was admin.

Re: Problem installing San Andreas - Pinguinn - 27.04.2012

I would suggest putting the compatibility mode to Windows XP, because:
GTA: San Andreas -> Released in 2004/2005
Windows Vista -> Released in 2006/2007

So you have eventually a higher chance to get it working with compatibility mode at Windows XP
