I ran the installer and read the FAQ section and it said it was suposed to put a shortcut on my desk top. It did not put the shortcut on my desk top after instalation. Any guess on what i did wrong?

Im running HOI 1.06 and it is in its normal install directory.
 
Another Install Question

Hey guys,

I really want to try out your mod, but am having an install failure. I have loaded and updated my vanilla HoI to v1.06. Then, while the SRP mod is installing it fails at 85% of total install. The place it stops is in \gfx\Interface\units.jpg. The error message says "JPEG decompression error, couldn't open output file". The load aborts. This has happened both times I tried to install.
Do you think I have a corrupted download file? An inability to follow directions? A bug in the works?
Any positive suggestions would be most welcome. Thanks in advance.

The same thing happened to me. 2 ways to fix it.

way #1 you can go into your HOI folder then into the GFX folder then into the interface folder. inside the interface folder delete the units icon and the units_small icon then install the stony road mod and it should work fine.

way#2 just do a minimal install of the stony road mod. The mod will run fine but you wont get any of the historical flags of cool sprites by doing a minimal install.
