Broken DVD...

Did, you reinstall it to the same directory or a different one?

I'd reinstall it to a different directory and see if that solves it.

this sounds stupid but how please?

lol, ok.

When installing it choose custom install (I think that's how) then you can choose where to install TFD.

The most common time you will see the cyclic redundancy check error message is when trying to read data from a damaged CD or DVD

its still doing the same thing


i tried manual install??????

[NeoGrant]

Disk is faulty, a new one will have to be bought.

Before buying another one try if you only want to play a couple of the games included in the pack try to install them on their own and un check the other ones (which i believe is an option jsut before install if i remember correctly).

Try http://xwis.net/downloads/Red_Alert-2-0.0.0.exe

Disk is faulty, a new one will have to be bought.

Could it just be caused by a dirty or scratched DVD? or maybe even a dirty laser?

What is the general condition of the DVD?

this worked!~ however i dont have the other games and i do play yuris revenge,gen, zero and i like to dabble to old school from time to time so it does suck but this worked i custom installed and then only downloaded ra2 (the main game i play anyway)
