    I Can't Install Starcraft Anthology (Digital Download)


    Hi Everyone,

    I can't get Starcraft Anthology to run on my computer. The computer was built for me by a friend and I can't remember all the technical info. If you need any more details please just ask I'll ask my friend who put it together for me.

    It runs Windows 7 64 Ultimate with an Intel Core i7 (920 I think) has 12 GBs of RAM and plenty of storage over 3TB.

    I downloaded the installer from Blizzard's store and it downladed files about 2GB (am I right in thinking this is a "patch"?). The problem is when I go to install the game I got the following error message:

    "The file "C:\Starcraft\StarCraft.temp\Maps.temp\s… could not be renamed to "C:\Starcraft\StarCraft.temp\Maps.temp\s… (ConflictManager::ResolveConflicts/1)"

    I have tired everything I can think of to get it to work. I've ran it in compatibility mode I've ticked everything but compatibility mode. Sadly I'm not to good with computers. I don't play games other than Starcraft II (I'm a new player started yesterday) and I'm now on the last mission and would like to start the first game.

    I would reallly appreciate your help. I'm sorry if this goes against the rules but if anyone would be up for a SC:II match just let me know.

    Happy Holidays,

    Grace

    If it is a "patch" the "game" itself must be installed first. Not a gamer so I have no idea. May also be a case where you need to install as admin, and perhaps take ownership.

    Thank you Zig for your reply. I am not a gamer either really I have tried to run it as admin with still no luck. As for the "patch" I don't think it is a patch it's more likely the game files as I don't have a hard copy. I've switched over to an iMac so fingers crossed. :)

    I managed to install it successfully with OS X SN. However there are still some minor bugs but I've come across them on the internet trying to get it to play on Win7. I will endeavour and hope some gaming sage comes to my aid. :)
