    There is an XP patch to fix this problem. Unfortunately I do not know where it is at. I will ask a friend to post the location for you though.

    Download...

    This update resolves several issues between Sid Meier\'s Alpha Centauri and Windows 2000 and XP machines.
    This update is only needed for Alpha Centauri owners who have Windows 2000 or XP and are having problems getting the game to run OR if you play multiplayer games with other players who have installed this patch.
    If you are not having problems running Alpha Centauri on your PC and you do not play multiplayer games with other players who have installed this patch, you should not install the patch.

    Yeah, i have installed all those patches and still comes up with that setup error. This is happening when i put the cd in and click install SMAC. the setup doesn't even load or anything just gives that error. I put the cd into my laptop with win 98 and crashed, then put it in my other computer with 64bit+winxp 64bit edition and it actually loaded teh setup program but when it got to 100% it crashed again with a normal windows crash error. Thanks for the help in advance:)
