    Error when installing the Beta client

    The file "Sound\Ambience\GhostState.wav" in archive "C:\Users\Ben Sapir\Desktop\World of Warcraft\Data\lichking.MPQ" could not be opened, because an error 2 occurred. If this problem persists, please contact Blizzard Technical Support. (MPQFile::OpenFromArchive)
    As soon as I begin downloading the beta client this error pops up and it closes. Does anyone have any idea what the hell I'm supposed to do about this? I've tried everything and it's starting to get really frustrating. I also tried going into the mpq file and trying to find "GhostState.wav" but it wasn't under Ambience. WTF?

    Sorry for the somewhat noobish post.

    Ben Dougler Sapir...

    You have 1 or more corrupted WotLK files that the Client needs to copy... short of a "repair" ir reinstall... you could try maybe finding a friend that could burn their lichking.MPQ to a DVD and you could copy over...

    Check the path of the error you quoted it has your name int eh userpath... then a simple name + wow found you... then some Facebook postings on Ensidia's FB page

    THAT'S why peeps hated the idea of RealID displaying real names...

    Huh...it would appear that I am a complete fucktard ^_^


    Also, I have some blank DVDs but none of them were big enough to hold lichking.mpq (2.5 GB) :P

    Try to run administrative if your using vista or windows 7,it might help.

    Aight, so I was looking for something big enough to transfer it from a different comp with WoW installed, and I found this flattish blue square thing, with a cord sticking out of it leading to a USB port. So at this point I just said what the hell, why not, and plugged it into my comp and it turned out to be an external hard drive ^_^ After copying the file and replacing my current lichking.mpq with it absolutely nothing happened. This confuses/frustrates me a lot but I'm proceeding to reinstall the game >.<

    People hate RealID because of creeps like you.

    And here I thought I was letting him know how letting his name out like that could be quickly cross referenced,
