Re: Is there a no CD crack for First Strike?

Yeah lame =/ and my CD is buggered completely, I managed to get off half of the crap and it reads the cd but it just gets stuck on the 2142 splash screen with the cd drive making loud noises sad

Re: Is there a no CD crack for First Strike?

It's a long shot, by worth a try. Contact EA, explain whats happened and include your CD key, Profile name and soldier profiles to show that you do hav a genuine copy etc. Ask if there is any way to continue playing the game without a cd, or if they could send you a replacement disk even if that means you have to send your disk back first (do so by recorded delivery!).

Re: Is there a no CD crack for First Strike?

Thanks for the advice guys, I took Twigs first advice and found some CD cleaning solvent lying around and it worked like a charm! So Ace isn't out of the game yet!

Thanks alot Twigs smile

Re: Is there a no CD crack for First Strike?

No sweat mate, its just a case of knowing that sticky stuff doesnt like cleany stuff tongue As long as you dont scrub too hard and let the chemical do the work it usually does the job. Just be careful you dont use anything too strong as it can corrupt the disk by (in extremes) melting it, or permeating the plastic and destroying the data layer.

Apparantly WD-40 (spray oil) is really good for getting under the sticky stuff so you can just wipe it off as well.
