Or a dirty one, just run it under water and whipe it off with something soft and see if it works.

Or try to copy the CDrom to your hard drive and install it from there. :)

I cleaned it with some alcohol and now its working again. :D

First of all, Hi

[Nyarlathotep]

try to copy the CDrom to your hard drive and install it from there. :)

[Antagonist]

Wow, thanks for the quick response.

I already tried installing from the harddrive.

But when I copy it to my harddrive the broken file I00_f04e.bik doesn't get copied because it is unreadable.

Is there some way to skip this file, or can anyone mail it to me ? schen900@planet.nl

from what driver are you trying to install ? If you are installing from a DVD, or cdrw,

then try installing from a "normal" cdrom.

If you're able, have you tried installing on another pc ?

I tried installing from a DVD drive, a regular CD burner, an old CD drive, and I tried imaging them and then scanning for broken sectors, none worked though.

I keep on ending up at the 78% install with the  I00_f04e.bik file missing.

The cd is not scratched but there is some sort of blur on it, looks like a stain though I couldn't clean it.  :-

Tomorrow I will try to install on a mates pc.

It may be wise to try and swap the copy at the store where you bought it.

I did this morning, right now I am hooked.  ::)

Thx for the help, if anyone else has similar problems I would suggest swapping cd's ASAP.

Happy gaming :)
