    1) Learn to type legibly. Run-on sentences are bad.
    2) If the map is in an archive (.zip or .rar file) then download and install Winrar. Extract the files (right click the file and choose "extract to *folder name*" and place the extracted folder on your desktop or something. Wherever it is most convenient.
    3) Grab the .map file from the extracted folder and place it in "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Games\Halo 2\maps". The "(x86)" part may or may not be there depending on what version of Windows Vista you are running.

    H2V's map directory isn't the same as Halo PC/CE's man

    It's in your C:\Users\<your User name for Windows>\Documents\My Games\Halo 2\Maps

    Sorry about mixing up the maps folder location - as you can see, I am incredibly knowledgeable in H2V .
