He can't find the folder. IF its a mac try all of these:
a) Look at your shaders and stuff folder and all the folders in Halo Demo for a wierd charecter.
b) right click the actual Halo Demo application and hit show package contents and sift through those.
c) go to your documentts folder and choose Halo Demo folder and sift through those.
d) If none of this stuff works, reinstall.

Yeah, it's probably that you accidentally changed the name of a folder so that it has one of those characters you listed. Just use Spotlight to find the folder, or manually search Finder. Then, just take the character out.

btw you CANNOT have a folder with a "." (period) in the beginning of it. the OS will not let you, unless you used terminal which i doubt.

but "I'm a pretty girl" is better than "I'm so damn smart"... especially if "he" is actually a "he" O.o
