k, cause I've recently downloaded from mininova or some other site a ISO of the installation cd.
It did work but the only way I could patch it was to install each of the incrementals individually, the full 1.21 wouldn't run no matter what I've tried.
So I bought EF and tried installing it but every time I did I got a CRC ERROR during the install process. I've tried downloading EF 4 times now, 1.5gigs worth and I kept getting the same message everytime.
So thats whats brought me to believe that the 'other persons' cd is the problem....
So just 45minutes ago I tried uninstalling bf2 and the ea downloader. Now i'm just trying to reinstall BF2 with the ISO mentioned earlier and now I get MD5Error's every time, even tried safemode install>!!!!!!!!
more help please, its 1am in the morning here and it's driven me absolutely f#$#ing nutz!
Funny things is I was sitting back until recently wondering why all these ppl were having difficulties, till now mines been perfect, that is until I scratched the shite out of the cd.... :'-(
