    Battlefield 2 Installation Problem

    When I first got this game in December, I installed it right away and had no trouble playing it. Recently, I have reformatted my hardrive and am now trying to reinstall Battlefield 2. For the first few moments the installation goes smoothly, but whenever it gets to:
    ...\EA GAMES\Battlefield 2\mods\bf2\Objects_server.zip
    an error pops up that reads:

    ___________________________________________
    Battlefield 2(TM) - Installshield Wizard
    _____________________________________________

    Failed to install Battlefield 2, try again from the beginning.



    It does this every time I attempt to install Battlefield 2. Any ideas/solutions would be much appreciated.

    Thought I installed the patches after the initial installation. I'll try anyways.

    You do have to install the game first. Sounds like your DVD/CD may be having issues being read. Take the media and clean it then try again. If that fails, PM me and we can discuss you downloading a working copy of the DVD from me.

    @nakedmongoose123:

    They are referring to physical dirt, smudges, or scratches on the DVD / CD. Give it a good whipe with some water and a nice smooth rag, or tissue and try again. If it keep failing your disc may be damaged.

    Can someone familiar with Vista installation problems please contact HAZMAT and help him work through his installation problems. I have Vista and no problems so I haven't been able to help.

    Well (lol - Old thread that gets bumped once in a while) have you seen any scratches or dirt marks which might be on your disk?
