AZS01 Posted January 29, 2007 Share Posted January 29, 2007 Hey, Im trying to install the game and when I get to disc 2, the installation stops at 72%. I have had the same disc before and it worked, so I looked beneat disc 2 and there are some scratches. A few pretty noticable. I get an error saying it couldn't read the disc (file: fenwnite). I recently bought a scratch repair kid (Memorex) and so far it hasn't worked. I keep doing it and doing it hoping the machine "rubs it down" far enough so the scratch isnt there anymore. It doesnt go past the foil at all, so Im confident the info is still there, but does anyone have any advice?

evil1182 Posted January 29, 2007 Share Posted January 29, 2007 Mix a little distilled water with some Isopropoyl alcohol, that's what some of those scratch cleaners use so when I ran out of it I made my own batch, works all the time.

AZS01 Posted January 29, 2007 Author Share Posted January 29, 2007 Also just tried copying all the files except fenwnite.big onto a disc but my computer doesnt recognize it during installation. Anything else? Link to comment https://www.mvpmods.com/forums/topic/26666-game-scratch-installation-problems/#findComment-363048 Share on other sites More sharing options...
evil1182 Posted January 29, 2007 Share Posted January 29, 2007 Try transferring it from a different drive or computer. Link to comment https://www.mvpmods.com/forums/topic/26666-game-scratch-installation-problems/#findComment-363051 Share on other sites More sharing options...
AZS01 Posted January 29, 2007 Author Share Posted January 29, 2007 Thats what I did...I used our PC (Im on a laptop now). After 53% I put in the one I copied to, and it think I have photos, not the 2nd disc of installation.

AZS01 Posted January 29, 2007 Author Share Posted January 29, 2007 Anyone else? Would it be considered a Data CD? Any other scratch fix solutions?

AZS01 Posted January 29, 2007 Author Share Posted January 29, 2007 Just a note - the scratch I believe is causing all of the problems is about as deep as a fingernale is thick. Also when viewed up close it looks like a squiggle, or like a mountain range viewed from the side. Any other ways I can make a copy and make my computer recognize it as part of the game?

DJEagles Posted January 29, 2007 Share Posted January 29, 2007 Look for a copy of Alcohol 120 online....I am not to familiar with copying cds, but you may be able to copy disc 2...perfectly legal if you are making a back-up copy.

AZS01 Posted January 29, 2007 Author Share Posted January 29, 2007 Ive got it...now what? I have ALL the files I need to put on disc two (and yes, it is a "backup" - I have the original, with code, but its scratched, probably beyond repair) I need to put ALL the files I have, for disc 2, into Alcohol 120, then burn it onto my CD. Thats where Im stuck. Is anyone familar with the program here?

kgbaseball Posted January 29, 2007 Share Posted January 29, 2007 You can get the full version of Alcohol 52% for free, rather than having the trial version of 120%, fyi.

AZS01 Posted January 29, 2007 Author Share Posted January 29, 2007 How do I use them though? (The Alcohol Progs) It cant read my scratched CD (presumably because its scratched) but it CAN read my unscratched CD with all the games files on it - but can it burn the files as a computer game????

DJEagles Posted January 29, 2007 Share Posted January 29, 2007 If it cannot read your scratched game, then you are out of luck. Link to comment https://www.mvpmods.com/forums/topic/26666-game-scratch-installation-problems/#findComment-363122 Share on other sites More sharing options...
AZS01 Posted January 29, 2007 Author Share Posted January 29, 2007 No no, it reads my unscratched game - but they are just the files - they arent executable as a game. Is there anything that can convert just the files into a PC Game? I have ALL the files saved on to my computer - and on a disc, but the computer thinks the ones on the disc are photos, so I need something where I can either read/copy the CD as a PC Game or put the files into something where they are burned as a PC Game.

AZS01 Posted January 29, 2007 Author Share Posted January 29, 2007 So basically what I need is something that can burn my files (I have all of them that are supposed to be on disc 2) onto a CD, so that they are recognized as being the game instead of Photos.

DJEagles Posted January 29, 2007 Share Posted January 29, 2007 I meant to say scratched game. It would seem that your disc 2 may be unrepairable. You may indeed be out of luck.

AZS01 Posted January 29, 2007 Author Share Posted January 29, 2007 I have all of the files for it on my PC---no way to transfer those files to a CD that works as Disc 2?
