    Hey,


    I recently tried to update battlefield 2 from EA which ofcourse did not work, so i uninstalled battlefield 2 completly restarted my PC , closed all my backround tasks and was going to reinstall it , but not even after 2 minuts of progress it said installation failed try again from the begining, now i tryed a few time and it always seem to stop in the same spot , when it says Program files/EA Games/mods/Dalian plant/client .


    anybody can help me out on this?



    Thanks.

    Try cleaning that disk. Sometimes there is a speck of dirt, fingerprint, oil, scratch or the like.

    BTW, what kind of update were you installing? Some update files need a prior update already installed to work. Others are full updates which include previous updates.

    Would torrenting a copy and burning onto a new DVD help, only after the above step has failed to yield positive results? I mean, he has a legal key right, so would downloading an illegal copy be illegal in that sense, seeing that he already has a legal one? Or would he be able to get the disk replaced with a fresh one?

    Urm im not sure, on many of my disk for games it says in bold letters "Do not make copies of this disk".

    The 1.3 patch comes in two flavors. One is an incremental patch that requires previous patches to be installed first and there is a full or complete patch that includes previous patches. The full patch is about 438MB and the incremental is about 83MB.
