Trying to install the old game Grand Prix 3 on my windows 10 machine. So far all other games install correctly,

But after putting my GP3 disc into my drive and starting the game install EXE, I get an error notice, 'Setup failed to run installation, the remote procedure call failed'

I have checked for virus issues and all good. I have tried to run in admin mode and compatibility mode. Also I have run the various Dism tools and other tools with command prompt, Also I have turned of the firewall, AV and lowered the User account control.

Any ideas how I can get this game installed from my disc?

Thanks!
 
Have you tried installing on another PC, the data on the disc could be corrupt, is it a retail disk in the proper packaging etc.

You are welcome btw :)
 
Can you copy the files to the drive and run the exe from the drive.
If no luck.
You could think about running it on either a dual boot with XP or a Virtual machine.
 
So as suggested I have tried another cd copy that I had and still same error.
Tried copying all the files from the cd to a folder on my desktop, ran the installer and same result.
Not yet tried on another of my laptops but I have a feeling that it is the laptop I am using that as something corrupt somewhere to stop the installer?
