  • BTS install problem

    when prompted to insert disc 2 and clicking 'ok,' i get a catastrophic error, and the wossname aborts.

    any help?

    I'd surmise that the game just doesn't like you.
    I'm building a wagon! On some other part of the internets, obviously (but not that other site).

      why thank you. that is far and away the most helpful advice i've ever received.

        My guess would be you have a bad disc. Did you try returning it for another copy?

            My pleasure!

            I couldn't really help you with your problem (my version of Civ4 is on dvd with both expansions and installs properly) but I figured your thread could use a free bump. Because, you know, it could fall off the front page of this forum...

              Hmm. Do you have a specific error code? Installshield errors are often googleable. Sometimes it can be fixed by removing Installshield, or other similar things.

                it might be doing that because i don't have warlords. it wouldn't even install until i had patched the original game. i'm going to give it another shot.

                    I only have vanilla and BTS and it installed. I also had to patch the original.

                    It sounds like a bad CD.

                        or not. they don't apparently have another copy for me to exchange it with. my question to you is can one illegally download something they already own.. .youknow... for archival purposes?

                          You're trying to save the $20 to get a new disc, or you're trying to save the time / effort?
