Default ARGH! - 12-19-2003, 10:24 PM

Ok, my DoD disc must be scratched or something since during the installation process it says their is a corrupt file.

So, is there any way to fix this without buying a new CD?

lol a driver problem would have nothing to do with a currupt file during install, MR. Smart one.

(Most likely the disc is ruined. You will have to buy a new one.) Sucks I know.

Now that I think about it maybe the thing was ripped off in store for the cd key. It is happening a lot now because of online cd key verification.

Stela the cd key Scratch the disk.

Yeah, You just open the game box in the store. If they ask what you're doing you just say "I wanna make sure I'm not getting ripped off."

You're not damaging merchandise, or stealing anything. (Cept the CD key)
