[WTF] Installation troubles with Rome:Total War, The Sims 2


Ok, yesterday I bought the Sims 2 and Rome: Total War. Here's the problem


NEITHER OF THEM INSTALL

For Rome Total War, it gets about 10% of the way into the installation, then says it has an error reading a file "Voice1.dat" or something. I hit retry but it just basically freezes the installation.

For the Sims 2, when I get to the 3rd disk, it says "Insert Disk 3." I put in the disk, and hit ok, but the computer doesn't recognize that its the right disc!!!11


someone plz help me, Ive been waiting for these 2 games for over a year...

As I said in AIM, one would be understandable and I'd tell you to return it... but two is a bit weird... If the CDs aren't scratched... then I don't know, Unless your CD drive is borked, but if it is borked why would the first two CDs work?

I had a problem installing the Sims at first, it kept giving me that "error reading somethingsomething.rar" or something like that. I closed down the installation and restart my computer, the most basic of remedies. Then I shut down all non-essential programs and tried the installation again. It worked.

Good luck. If it keeps up, I'll ask Tech Support (aka the guy I date) what he thinks

I have a friend in real life who's a Mac user. He does this all the time.

By the rote mastery of this art, your firing efficiency will rise by no less than 120%. The difference of a 63% increase to lethal proficiency makes the master of the gun katas an adversary not to be taken lightly.

Are you trying to get yourself banned? If so, why don't you just not come onto the forums anymore?

Take the Sims 2 back to where you got it from and exchange it for the 1 Disc DVD version.
