Error trying to install C3C

[LestatV]

I've recently purchased a new hard drive and am trying to re-install C3C. I've successfully installed the game on the same hardware configuration before, but just with a different hard drive.

When I attempt to autorun the CD, which is in my E drive, I get:

"The application of DLL E:\IFC23.dll is not a valid Windows image. Please check this against your installation diskette."

I've also tried just exploring the CD and running the setup program, and I get a similar error.

Any idea what the deal may be?

Oh, and i'm running XP Pro, Athlon 64 3.2, 1 gig ram, and a very powerful vid card.

One other funny thing I've noticed. When I try to run Civ4 with my C3C disc in the drive, I get the C3C splash screen popping up, and then it just says "Put in your Civ4 disc".

Kinda funny since I can't get the C3C splash screen to come up at all otherwise.

I have the same problem. I just got Civ III Complete for Christmas, and I've tried to install it on two computers. I've had to restart both of them multiple times, and usually I end up with the error mentioned above. I don't know what to do anymore.
