Component move data error (error 113 or 117)
This error can occur for several occasions You have read only files in your previous install This can be the case when you copied a file from CD to your installation to replace a file of the installation. The installation can't replace this file by itself and generates this error.

You might need to manualy remove the DF2 directory from previous install if its still on the HD, then re-install.

If this doesn't work then hopfully someone else can bang out a solution for ya.

Another cause.
Disk is dirty or scratched A dirty or scratched disk can keep the installation program from reading the file. Please clean the disk or ask for a replacement when it is scratched, but you did say the CD was clean.
