    I searched throught Bioware self-help forum but i didnt find anything to get it work.
    I had it installed before but i unistalled it becouse of lack of disc space. :( Now i got a new hard drive so i wanted to play it again.

    When i want to install it it gets throught cd1 with no problem but then stops with CD2 at file textures2 around 65%. Then it stops and says there has been an error. wiev log for further informations(something like that). Thats all it does. I tried copying the files it already installed onto another directory and it worked(after error report it deletes everything it intalled before). The problem is that SP module is missing :( :( so there is no way i can play the game.

    Hovewer i think it has something to do with second install. I lend it to a friend whao has 2 computers and it installed fine first time. Now i tried at their place but it happened the same to them.

    Disc 2 is cleaned and not scrached too much(have some others which are realy badly scratched and they work), i've cleaned it but to no effect.

    I have an idea to install on computer where it has never been installed before and see if it works. Then i would copy installed game on my hard drive. Registration entries are done at my hard drive already.
    What do you think of that?

    Ony other ideas??? :confused:

    Really sounds like a broken CD. Even if you don't have many scratches, they may be deep enough to damage the disc.

    Yeah thats what i though first.
    But after it started to pester me with this problem i lend it to another fried and he installed it normaly. Maybe his CD-drive still works with such cd-rom and mine doesnt.
    Anyway i'll check it again

    EDIT No i just checked it and it looks perfectly fine. :( /EDIT

    [​IMG] Try to change the type of installation.
    If you have selected one type of installation try another!
    I had the same problems with an other game a few years ago.

    Had the same problem with my CD-Rom Drive. Then I manually copied everything on CD2 over on my HD and said it could find the files there. Worked fine.
