Is there deep stratch in your DVD? If there isn't send email to EA customer service tell your problem and they must send you new game. If there is I guess you have to buy new game... sad

Well, thank you for your help, it's time to go couch diving for cash. (The scratch is relatively small, but a scratch none the less.):/

Re: Installing 2142 Problem

This time, if you can, get it from EA Link...that way, you dont have to worry about the disc.

Re: Installing 2142 Problem

Is there any way to repair the disc? I had a Game Doctor lying around here somewhere, but I used that for console games a while back. hmm

Re: Installing 2142 Problem

Well there's some kind of repair pastes sold, but they only work if the scratch isn't located deep in data layer of DVD...

(You can also try to "wash" your dvd with warm water, sounds nuts but it worked for me once..)

Re: Installing 2142 Problem

Well I'm all set now! My cousin brought over his disc so I could install, then I ran into the PB kicking problem, I cleaned that up, and now I'm ready for this mod! Can't wait, and thanks for the help guys!:D

Re: Installing 2142 Problem

Never rush to buy a new game in this case, mail EA and they'll tell you to send the entire game package plus 5€ over to them and they'll send you a new disc , a hell of a lot cheaper tongue

Re: Installing 2142 Problem

ok listen to me. your disc has been scratched in an important data file. this happened to me. if you didnt already go out and and by a new disc. then i highly suggest not to speak of doing this again. i had to download mine in a torrent file, the use the cd-key to install it. it only takes the disc to star up the game if you do that.
