Problem Installing Need For Speed Shift
I just want to post up a quick solution for those having problem installing their copy of games acquired from EA (Electronic Arts) particularly on the latest episode of Need For Speed, Shift.
If you are hitting error that says ” Cannot install to the selected directory because the path contains the following characters: \\/:*?”"<>|; ” or not having the actual game name printed on the setup window title, read on.
- Uninstall your copy of PhysX and get the latest version installed later on.
- Install the latest version of ATI Catalyst if you are running on ATI chips.
- Remove Microsoft Applocale if you are using one. (In many cases, you probably would have one installed)
- Remember to restart or else you will find yourself in no luck after attempting all steps said above.
- Good luck! I got mine working by following these steps.
