Sorry you are having problems. Have you tried again? Where did you get the game from & is it Spartan or Gates of Troy?

Can you try copying all the files into a temporary directory on your hard disk and seeing if it will install if you run it from there?

Cheers

Hi Jaris, sorry you are having problems. Are there any marks on the disk? If you cannot copy the files to the hard drive maybe it is scratched in some way.

You might try copying the files on another computer, to check whether it is a problem with your CD drive.

Cheers
