Error 1334 Installing Half Life 2
it fails with the error - Error 1334. The file 'hl2.ico1' cannot be installed because the file cannot be found in cabinet file 'hl24.cab'.... According to my copy of the DVD this file is in hl25.cab!! Anyone any ideas? dan13l16-11-2004, 12:33I just posted in the other thread, didn't see this one. I've downloaded mine on Steam, but my dad has just phoned me because he gets the same error... The SteamPowered.Com forums are down at the moment, so can't check on there...I'll keep digging and see what I can find. It could, of course, be a bad disc? Where did yours come from? bumfrog16-11-2004, 12:41you could try copying the install files drom the dvd to the hard drive and running it from there.... karellen16-11-2004, 12:42Got it from PCWorld. I have found another mention of the same problem in another forum but he has not replied how he actually fixed it - hl2.ico1 error (http://www.halflife2.net/forums/showthread.php?t=51445) ShakeyJake16-11-2004, 12:43If you have a fast connection maybe you could put in the cd key in the "Register a product I already own..." thing, then download the files off steam dan13l16-11-2004, 12:47That thread has a bit more info in now - looks like you need to install CS:Source as well, otherwise it doesn't work... karellen16-11-2004, 12:54Just read that new info: I had also unticked the CS:Source installation. Reinstalling now....................... *fingers crossed* EDIT: Sorted - waiting on Steam now. dan13l16-11-2004, 12:58*fingers crossed* Do let us know how it goes :) Good luck! LeftHandedGuitarist16-11-2004, 13:08I had exact same problem, re-installed with Counter Strike selected and all worked well. Now I entered my CD key and got a pop up message saying: "Your subscription to Half Life 2 Retail Standard has not been completed, because Steam servers are currently unable to process the transaction. You won't be able to play Half Life 2 Retail Standard until the subscription process is complete. We are sorry for any in

View Profile View Forum Posts Junior Member Join Date Dec 2004 Posts 1 Installation Issue: file 'hl2.ico1' can't be installed... Hello, all. First time posting here. Here's my dilemma... I've just received http://pressf1.pcworld.co.nz/showthread.php?52657-Installation-Issue-file-hl2-ico1-can-t-be-installed HL2 for X-mas today. I've tried to install it twice so far. Every time I get to CD #4, I get an error message, and the entire installation process is cancelled. Here's what's keeping me from enjoying my game: "Error 1334. The file 'hl2.ico1' cannot be installed because the file can't be found in cabinet file 'hl24.cab'. This could indicate a network error, an error reading from the CD-ROM, or a problem with this package." Okay, the CD's are all clean as a whistle. My CD-ROM drive is perfectly fine, too. I looked for the hl24 file on CD #4 and found a zip file of the same name; inside I found that it contained stuff for CounterStrike. When I was doing the installation setup, I told it that I didn't want CS installed (I'm a tad tight for hard disk space). As far as I know, that shouldn't be the cause of my problems... Any suggestions/threads that I could be directed to? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks all, and happy

I downloaded Steam (ridiculous) and created an account and began installing the game.

You also have to install Counter Strike: Source, otherwise it won't work. Had the same problem myself.User Info: walnut100walnut100 9 years ago#61. Install CS:S with it. It's a glitch.
