problem with lost victories

Hi,
I downloaded SPWaW and Lost Victories this past week and installed them. SPWaW seems to work fine but I can't get the LV Campaign to start...the start button is greyed out and if I click it, I get a message asking me to input a name for a save file. If I do that a scrolling message in a small window says that it is unable to load oob 01 data. Then I'm stuck and can't go further.
In a previous post TMAC Trooper said "I get an error message each time I install MCNA (I posted this before) that reads (3 times) Error: could not move file(s) (#3, line3) and line 6 and line 9."
This has happened to me as well and is most likely the cause of the problem. Does anyone have a solution for this. I can't wait to play this even if I'm a noobie about to get his butt kicked!
:D Tx in advance. Duane

Not long after I put up my post, I found a post anwering my question by changing the installation dir to steelpanthers. After reinstalling, the game is working correctly. Wouldn't you know I would find the answer after my post and I really did look for a couple of days to find an answer!!! At any rate, things seem fine but with this one addendum: At the end of the installation, there was an error message stating that some files couldn't be found. Will this present a problem later in the campaign? If anyone knows about this, please let me know. Thanks again. Duane
