Looks like there is common thing to those who can't install demo: Windows 98 and FAT32 file system. I was going to install game from CD-R to install game to PC where is Win98SE and FAT32 disk system. Didn't work. From same CD-R I installed it to my own PC which has same OS but FAT16 file system.
You know what they say, don't you? About how us MechWarriors are the modern knights, how warfare has become civilized now that we have to abide by conventions and rules of war. Don't believe it.

We are going to be using a different installer system for the full release. I used an open-source installer for the demo because it was the quickest and easiest thing I could get my hands on at the time. No one had reported this kind of problem with this installer software before this. I'll have to let the author know about it.

Roger that. Easiest and fastest way I can think about is to WinZip installed game and put that to on-line as alternative download. This assuming changes to Windows Register aren't required to get game work. Comments?

Change part of your HDD to FAT16 and try again on it.
