I was not discounting the issue about there being a small player base and demand for it, but rather frustrated at the lack of info I have been able to gather on the product.

I'd expect at least someone knows what happened to it at least so I could possibly get a lead, but it seems like any info Microsoft had has vanished which is frustrating.

From the comments other people got this running. What am I missing or is this a corrupted iso? Also tried running with all the patches installed and same error.

Keep in mind that I'm running a home built computer which is running Windows However, as long as you know what you are doing, you will have everything up and working. And I am quite happy to say, I got what I wanted except for the multiplayer up and working due to that thing that Microsoft did. I have tried the work-around bit but no dice.
