OK I'm not a computer wiz by any means but have you eliminated the obvious? By that i mean did you try to load anything else off of another CD or run another game off a CD to make sure it's not a CD drive problem? I had a CD drive go bad and it acted like what you are describing. If other CDs work fine then you're gonna have to call in one of the big dogs here cause I'd have no clue...

Ok.
First off, (not to be a jerk) is this a legal copy of the game? Torrent stuff can have all sorts of problems with reinstalling. Also, you say this Quote:

If you can not get the game to install, try right clicking on the drive it is in and choosing explore, and see if you cant find the install fire and start it that way. |

Do you have any other PC you could at least test the disk in?
Also, maybe a quick run of some antispyware/virus could be in order. |

So according to your last post, you've uninstalled the game, right? I'm not clear what the exact problem is now. Is it you can't install it again?

When you explored the game disc, did you double click the setup.exe file? Most games have this file name but since I don't have this game I could be wrong.

Could you change your folder view to "Details?" Also, hopefully, you haven't set your file extensions to be hidden.

You can change the setting under Folder Options in the Control Panel.

about the hidden files is this what your talking about?

Not so much hidden files but hidden file extensions. "Hide extensions for known file types." Uncheck that box for now. You can recheck it later if you wish. If you want, you can check the box to show hidden files, just in case.

Well, maybe the problem isn't solved but before, you had three files called installer. Now you know which one is the .exe you should be double clicking. I don't suppose double clicking it works?
