    Posted: 01 Sep 2008 at 2:19pm
Just bought the book.  Great!  In the Preface you recommend downloading R2 and provide a link.  The link no longer words and user is directed to the SAP site.
I registered there and was presented with a list of downloads, but don't see the original Release 2.  Lots of Hot fixes and Service Packs up to 4.  If I install SP 4 I assume it contains everything I need, but hoped for confirmation.
Have you or anyone tried this on the original XI version?

Capcom Digital Collection -region Free--iso- //free\\ Jun 2026

A 2.5D action-platformer featuring the iconic grappling hook mechanic.

The term "ISO" in the context of Xbox 360 preservation refers to a disc image format that replicates the structure of the original DVD-9 or DVD-5 media.

is a highly sought-after file format for retro gaming enthusiasts looking to preserve and play a classic compilation of Xbox 360 arcade titles. Released physically in 2012, this retail disc bundled eight popular Xbox Live Arcade (XBLA) games that were previously only available digitally. Obtaining the region-free ISO version allows players worldwide to enjoy these Capcom classics on original hardware or modern emulators without geographical restrictions. Inside the Capcom Digital Collection

Released in March 2012, the Capcom Digital Collection was a unique physical compilation for the Xbox 360. It brought together eight hit games that were previously only available as digital downloads on the (XBLA). For a suggested price of $39.99, it offered a convenient, all-in-one package of classic arcade titles, complete with modern enhancements.

The Capcom Digital Collection is a digital compilation of 36 classic games from Capcom's extensive library, featuring titles from the 8-bit and 16-bit eras, as well as some from the early days of 3D gaming. This collection is a treasure trove of retro gaming goodness, including iconic franchises like Mega Man, Street Fighter, Resident Evil, and many more. The collection was initially released in digital format on various platforms, including PlayStation, Xbox, Nintendo Switch, and PC. Capcom Digital Collection -Region Free--ISO-

Retail Xbox 360 games were typically region-locked, meaning a game purchased in North America (NTSC-U) would not function on a console from Europe (PAL) or Japan (NTSC-J). However, the Xbox 360's security architecture allowed for the signing of "Region Free" titles, often distributed digitally via XBLA or, in rare cases, pressed onto retail discs.

I will give it a try.  I didn't think it was clear, either.  I never saw the plain old XI R2.  I think SP2 is the first one available, but I will check again.  I did see the dreaded incremental.  I thought I would try SP3 first since hopefully, it will contain everything up to that point.  Will let you know.  Thanks!

I downloaded and installed R2 and then downloaded and installed SP3 and SP4 from SAP site.  Reporting back as requested.

I am having one issue.  When I open the app or any report not stored in the Workbench, Windows Installer comes up and then I get a Wait While XI configures R2.  This takes 10 minutes and I get java prompt pop ups with java.exe running in a window.
 
Does anyone know how to fix this?
 
Sure would appreciate.
Also, downloaded your training reports for the book, Brian.  Missing Chapter 10.  Is there one or did I lose it somehow?
 
Thanks again.

I found the download of R2 with SP2 here: http://resources.businessobjects.com/support/additional_downloads/service_packs/crxir2.asp. The zip file is 1.03 gigs. It sounds like I should hold off on installing SP3 and SP4.

I am going to uninstall SP4 and see what happens.   If it continues, I will uninstall SP3.
It is very annoying!
 
If anyone is successful getting rid of the issue, please post and I will do the same.

I just installed R2 with SP2 and I've been getting the Windows installer problem. Once I get Crystal Reports open, I can open anything I need to, but the installer wants me to do nothing else while it's doing its thing.

I had this problem when I was writing the XI book. The only way I got rid of it was to uninstall CR XI from my computer and then install the R2 download as a clean install. It is a full install and doesn't need XI to be on your computer beforehand. Then the installer nightmare went away.  Capcom Digital Collection -Region Free--ISO-
