Ok i'm having a problem with DL'ing Battlefield 2 onto my NEW PC :confused: .

It did this on my last computer (one of the reasons i got a new one, other than needing to upgrade BADLY!)

So anyway, when i insert the first disc, i enter the CD key and it begins DL'ing, then at about 30-40% progress it says "BF2 Failed to install, please try again from the beginning"

Why am i getting this error? Has the CD somehow gone sour?

I know BF2 will work on this computer, the guy i bought it from had it installed on it before he cleared the HD along with about 6 other games of the same magnitude. And the fact that it did the same thing on my old computer makes me wonder what happened to the CD.

Same thing happened to me I just got BF2 a week ago, it gave me an error when installing and crashed, I was installing it using a dvd-rw a put the cd on the other older drive a cd-r dvd combo not dvd-rw and it wroked with no problem, try a different drive a see what happens.

Wow, thank you. Funny how something that minor can throw you off. Put in in the CD rom tray (not the DVD/RW) and it worked fine. thanks.
