Hello,
I was trying to install a game on my xp pro system, and I received a message to the effect "Unable to execute in the temporary directory.:

 

[hang-the-9]

Is the game compatable with XP? Have enough drive space? Installing as an admnistrator account?

List your system specs, the game you are installing, exact error message and when it comes up, it will help with figuring it out.
