did you try compatability mode, change it to win 98/me...just a thought...worked for me with NFS V: porche 2000

High Stakes shouln't need compatibility mode in XP. It installed fine for me, although I did have a problem getting it to run in DirectX. For that, all I needed to do was run the game once in software mode, then run the 3d setup again, then it seemed to work.

It doesnt seem like this is the case with the original poster though.

It sounds like a video driver to me, or possibly a scratched CD, since he said he had problems installing it.

Like I said, we need more info on his system...

MY COMP HAS:

AMD ATHLON 1.4 GHZ
ATI RAGE 128 (WITH ALL THE LATEST DRIVERS) (32 MB)

AND A LOT OF OTHER GOOD STUFF

EVERYTHING ELSE WORKS PERFECTLY IN THE GAME EXCEPT FOR PURSUIT MODE (PROB THE BEST MODE) I CHECKED THE CD AND IT'S DEFINITELY NOT SCRATCHED UP. I DONT SEE WHAT THE PROBLEM IS...I TRIED THE COMPATABILITY MODE AND EVERYTHING BUT NOTHING WORKS FOR PURSUIT MODE. AND MY COMPUTER SEEMS TO HAVE EXCELLENT HARDWARE. PLEASE HELP!!! THANKS

TELL ME IF U NEED ANY OTHER COMP SPECS!!!

THANKS AGAIN!!

Sounds to me that because you had to install minimum, and because of move data errors, that you may have CD or CD-reader proplems.
If you have either multiple CD-readers, or perhaps a CD-reader and CD-Writer, try swapping about a bit. Sorry I could'nt have been more help
