I get stuck at 12% same file everytime. Its reads " The file C:\Program Files\Strategy UE2\GFX\Map\Units\BMP\T-army c:spaa-walk D-E L-1.bmp is in use and cannot be installed. Exit all other apps and retry. Have tried this install with 2 different CDs of the game and both do the same thing. I have the options of Abort Retry and Ignore. Ignore seems ignore it but it comes up for every file after this one. Only thing I know that happened was when I was installing it the 1st time the power flashed and the cpu reset while it was installing the game the 1st time. I have removed the program and tried but still no good.

You may have files still on your PC from the initial install aborted by the power problem and I would definetly check your PC after a power problem.
Some ideas:
Do you have Norton or something like it?. I would try to check your disk/windows and re-uninstall.
You could also look for the specific file using the search function and delete it.

Sorry, I don't have any good suggestion. I'm moving this thread to the support forum.
see this post: http://www.europa-universalis.com/forum/showthread.php?s=&threadid=20775
it will tell you how to uninstall properly the game after a failed install. There are probably some files or some registry keys still left somewhere.
And be sure that nothing else is running when you reinstall the game.
