Monkey Island 4 vs Windows XP
This is a discussion about Monkey Island 4 vs Windows XP in the Windows Games category; Whenever I try to install Escape From Monkey Island I get the following Setup Initialization error: Setup requires _SETUP. DLL and _ISRES. DLL (located in _SETUP. LIB) in order to operate properly.
Whenever I try to install Escape From Monkey Island I get the following Setup Initialization error:
Setup requires _SETUP.DLL and _ISRES.DLL (located in _SETUP.LIB) in order to operate properly. Please ensure that these files are located with SETUP.EXE
The file IS there, and I was able to install the game fine on Windows ME, so any help would be appreciated.

Try running setup.exe in Compatibility Mode to install the game.

No good, same error as last time.

Something else that may be of notice.. When I run "SET" in the command prompt, the folder it directs me to is one with "Read-Only" Attributes, and when I try to change the attributes they just get reverted, and if I try to do SET TEMP=somethingelse, it just gets reverted as well.
Control Panel->System->Advanced.
Click Environment Variables button.
Change the PATH variable in System variables box.
There should be no need to reboot.

Hmm... I did mean TEMP in that my post..
Create new folder named 'temp' to any of your drives root, for instance: c:\temp
Then change the TEMP (not PATH) variable to it, so it reads:
c:\temp
You can also change the TMP variable.
