    Error code 2203 basically pops up when the user does not have sufficient permissions to install the program to the folder that contains the installation point or the temp folder. Make sure that you are logged in as an Administrator to install the programs on the computer.

    Hi MLadyD7,

    Thank you for your message. Well I can say that your Microsoft Link was a complete success. I clicked on the link and followed the instructions to change my permissions as you stated and then tried to install Battlefield 3 and it worked and I was then able to play the game without any problems.

    Thank you so much for your help and support throughout this problem. I hope that others can benefit from my experiences if they have a similar problem.

    Superb game and excellent game play.

    Best regards.

Please advise.

Many thanks.
