Crysis not installing.

[Makol]

I'm trying to reinstall crysis but I kepp getting an error message. It seems like it's missing a file, does that mean my disc is damaged or something? I'm pretty confused. Screen shot of the error is attached.

Downloaded Crysis or you have the disc?

Lmao, I get the same message but then I can admit to downloading it via p2p !!!!!!

Do what I did (eventually) ... Buy the game.

Couldn't agree more, btw, the chicken thing had me laughing for days...

I have the actual disc, it came in the Crysis Maximum Edition bundle.

Ensure you have background apps off,

Plenty of rooms available? 12Gb + i think it was

Not on Vista so no UAC problems errrr bit stuck with this one.

Some Crysis forums mention copying file to a file on the desktop but sounds like you could have a corrupt disc

Microsoft knowledge base try them for the 1305 error , might assist.

I have plenty of hard drive space; 80gb free in the internal and about 213gb on the external (stores all my non-Steam games). I emailed EA support about it, but knowing them it could be weeks before they answer. The disc seems fine, no scratches or marks on it. I'm going to try a spare dvd dive to see if it's the drive, it cant read my Battlefield 2142 disc so that may be the problem.

I had a similar problem a while back, it turned out that my IDE connector had damaged pins and therefor my dvd drive didn't function properly. It took me a while to realise this so prob worth checking your connection to mobo.

i just opened my case to clean it and I decided to disconnect and reconnect both of my dvd-drives. I'm just booting it up right now.

 

[sprento]

btw, I connected the drive to the secondary IDE to get it to work.

Crysis is installing now, the error happens when there is only about 25% left.

Which is why I asked before helping .

it finally installed, it seemed that unplugging and replugging my dvd-drives worked. attached photographic proof that I didn't pirate.
