error code 53

[Tikatee]

I just finished playing Qake II and bought both the Reckoning and Ground Zero and they both show "error code 53" and won't launch. Any solutions? Thanx.

When you installed Quake 2 did you set it to install on a separate drive? If so that's probably what's wrong, Quake 2 Reckoning and Ground Zero need to be installed on the same drive as Quake 2 and for some reason it's only letting you set the install drive for one of the 3 and then the other 2 install to default drive. I wish I knew a way to fix this.

Nope, same drive. I uninstalled Quake II and then installed the others first which seemed to also download the appropriate files for them to all work. I reinstalled Quake II last and everything works.

I have the same problem... what did you do --exacly-- to get it running?

[Hotep]

I could use a fix for this also. Not that pay link above, but a real fix.

[Hotep]

I have a work around up.

So anyone want to tell me how they fixed it?

It stopped working, but I did some digging around, and the answer is here... http://forums.steampowered.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1756937
