Guest grannen Posted August 24, 2001 Share Posted August 24, 2001 1. Uninstall the game. 2. Run "ScanDisk" including check of surface. 3. Reinstall Windows. 4. Reinstall the game. If you want to be more thorough then you should run "Defrag" before you reinstall Windows. A PC has to be treated like a car. It needs checkups after a while, it doesn't run forever without service. ------------------ and Grannen [This message has been edited by Grannen (edited August 24, 2001).] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest grannen Posted August 24, 2001 Share Posted August 24, 2001 What problem? Insert the CD, answer the reg-code and country then you can leave the pc alone. Nothing is removed from other files or programs. But I think you should do a complete ScanDisk because it reported bad clusters. ------------------ and Grannen [This message has been edited by Grannen (edited August 24, 2001).] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest grannen Posted August 24, 2001 Share Posted August 24, 2001 It could be that part of the BS program used "bad clusters" on your hard drive and that's why it doesn't work. That's why I recommend a complete ScanDisk. Such clusters will then be earmarked as "bad" and will not be used in the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest grannen Posted August 24, 2001 Share Posted August 24, 2001 Run the ScanDisk anyway. Do it during the night because it will take several hours depending the size of the disk and how much has been used. ------------------ and Grannen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
