this is starting to tick me off.

i've been trying to install WoW on my new laptop but it won't seem to work. i get all kinds of weird error messages. here's the specs of my laptop:
Dell Inspiron E1705:
Intel Core Duo Processor(2 1664 MHz)
1gb of RAM
60gb Hard Drive

could anyone help me? i have no idea why it won't work. I can't install the trial version or the full version off the disks.

2 things:

First of all, this is an Apple support forum, so don't expect much.

Secondly, that is the most non-descript description of an error that I have ever heard, so again, don't expect much.

I've had installations problems in the past b/c of a two core processor.

Go to the task manager and set the affinity for the installation.exe app to just be one core. ;)

Its easy to solve, call blizzard support. The number is on the back of the box or inside the manual.

i sent them an email :P

I think the error says that a file decompressed corrupt. It also says "Trial". Try downloading the installer again?
