Capcom has identified a technical issue with the recently released PC version of MotoGP 08.

This issue only happens with MotoGP 08 PC when installing the game to a custom location on a hard drive; This issue does not affect the default installation, as it only occurs when the destination location has been changed.

To avoid this problem, Capcom states that you should not use the custom installation option to change the destination location for the game.

When the MotoGP 08 InstallShield Wizard reaches the step labeled “Choose Destination Location”, the default installation directory will be displayed (“C:\Program Files\Capcom\MotoGP 08”). Select “Next” to continue to the next step. Do not press the “Change” button.

In the next few days, Capcom will be releasing a patch for MotoGP 08 that will correct this issue.

I don't know, this wasn't explained very well. I guess a patch will sort this out either way, although there's no indication when it will arrive.

They don't seem to be saying.

My guess is that it's the same as with a couple of other games - uninstall will fail to find the correct folder and it'll delete the base contents of c:
