Problem Installing

Cannot Install

Hello, I recently bought Galactic Civilizations: Dread Lords.

I put the first disk into the disk drive to install it. The first time the disk didn't even spin so I removed it and tried again, the second time it did spin and the install screen came up. I immediately clicked Install and waited.

After awhile I realized nothing was happening, the disk would periodically spin and then stop, and then repeat. The Install screen was still up. I would click close and it would then tell me that the program was not responding.

I don't know whats going on with it, any help would be great, I'm fairly sure that my computer is capable of running it. I have all the reccomended hardware, not the minimal requirements. Any help would be great, thank you.

Provided your CD drive isn't dying, sounds like you got a (really) bad disc. You can try returning it, or save yourself the gas if you have a decent internet connection and just use your serial code with Stardock Central and download the entire game.

I've gotten bad discs before. Sometimes just making a copy and using that solves the problem.
