    i keep getting this your starcraft 2 installation is corrupt, would you like to run the repair tool? so i do, but then the repair tool just tells me to reinstall the game, so far i have had to do this 3 or 4 times and download all the patches again. I just dont know what to do. any help?

    If you have an older system, this could be a sign of a failing harddrive.

    Again, If and Could.

    Hrm.

    First, run a chkdsk just in case.

    Now, more info.

    Classic disc or Solid State Drive?
    Any other programs having this problem?
    Do you use a physical install disc or are you installing from the Digital Download?
