er, how?

Re: Help Please, with HL2!!

Just load up windows explorer (Windows key + E)

Then browse to your hard drive and create a new temporary folder.
e.g. c:\HL2 install files

Then browse to your CD and select ALL of the files (can use Control + A) and then copy (Control + C).

Then go to your temporary directory that you created and paste the files (can use Control + V).

Then find setup.exe and run it from there.

If you receive CRC errors (cyclic redundancy check) during the file copy, you may have a bad or dirty CD on your hands.

Then you're in a bit over your head.

You should ask for help from somebody you know who knows how to create directories and copy files to your hard drive for you.
