For some reason, I could't install WOTLK from the DVD; however, I upgraded my account to WOTLK Expansion, as you can see here:

(I tried everything to install WOTLK from the DVD, like Copying the entire dvd into a folder in my HD and trying to installing it from that folder, logged using safe mode as administrator; dowloading the Universal World of Warcraft Client, etc etc... and nothing... got the same problem: "Blizzard installer has encountered an error and needs to close..."). As you can see here:

So the questions are:

(1) as I already upgraded my account to the WOTLK Expansion, Will I be able to have access to the content of the expansion? Considering that I already downloaded all the patches to the 3.0.9...

(2) In other words, Do I really need to install that DVD or is enough with the patches that I already downloaded and installed?

?¿

(there are other people with the same problems, asu you can see here:

PD:
My account is innactive because I need to buy another prepaid card, that's why I cannot prove if I have access to the new content...

Thx!

  • ...Sin embargo, no se pudo instalar el juego hasta la formateada!

  • I found the solution I had to format my PC. apparently when this problem happen, it does mean that you have registry problems. I really dont know, but after the format, I installed the game successfully

    -

    Encontre la solucion, hay que formatear la PC. Aparentemente cuando estos problemas ocurren es porque en la compu hay problemas de registro.. en verdad no lo se porque yo baje y corri programas que juraban corregir problemas de registro.

  • try to make a folder then copy the whoale game in it then press the exe file so it will install without cd it worked for me

  • I did it already...

  • Somebody with the same issue? I need help!!!!
