    Okay, yesterday I bought a copy of Black & White with the X-pac from Wally World for $10 (a steal if you ask me). When i got home I installed both and tried to run both of them. When I did, I got an error message that says something like: "CREATUREISLE caused a 10H error in module CRATUREISLE.exe"

    could someone please tell me what the hell is going on?

    I was driving my car the other day and it made a noise somewhere under the hood.

    Could someone please tell me what the hell is going on?

    Anyway, on a helpful note, the 10H error is caused by windows, so at least one of the windows resources creatureisle.exe is using isn't working correctly, could be anything from your videocard drivers to your printer. Well obviously it isn't the printer in this case, but you get the point.

    Although, as DCL points out, you have given us rather sparse information, a
    10H exception often refers to a damaged math coprocessor installed in your computer.

    :m: Peace.

    Say that one of them is damaged. I ran SFC and it said that a DLL called setupx.dll could have been corrupted. I wanna know how I replace this file. I already have a new one, but how do I get the machine to recognize it as the right one?

    Some programs crash because during the installation process the programs components can be corrupted due to RAM errors.

    This could mean anything from bad RAM to just bad RAM management by the OS (like you might be using a program during the install process).

    Thats why most installations ask you to close any programs you have running before you continue the installation.
    (This also means closing/exiting taskbar programs like messenger services and antivirus software)

    You should probably reinstall (after uninstalling) taking the above into account.

    There is also the potential to have some problems with installations in some XP builds, although I doubt thats what would be effecting you.
