Guybrush_Dincht Posted March 14, 2003 Posted March 14, 2003 i'm really annoyed. ive started playing all of my games again. i got to the second disk on E.M.I and it got completelly stuck. ive tried cleaning it myself and i dont want to buy a disk cleaner. is there anything i can download to help it or will i have to buy a cleaner.
Benny Posted March 14, 2003 Posted March 14, 2003 Do you mean you've scratched your cd? If so it depends on how much you've scratched it, cd cleaners can help but for getting scratches out they arent usually that good i'm afraid. You can recover various files from the cd and you might be able to get away with running them from hd with a full install but its fairly unlikely and dependant on how badly scratched the cd is.
Remi Posted March 14, 2003 Posted March 14, 2003 A good last resort to fix scratched CDs is to rub some toothpaste into the scratch. Not sure how well that works on data CDs, but allegedly it works on music CDs.
xElaineMarleyx Posted March 16, 2003 Posted March 16, 2003 A good last resort to fix scratched CDs is to rub some toothpaste into the scratch. Just thought I'd tell you that that made me laugh... :lol: There's this thing out that's called a Game Doctor. It works for all scratched disks (music, pc, gamecube (with a special adapter), game...) but I've never tried it. To be truthful, I've never needed one either. Good luck! :D:D
Guybrush_Dincht Posted March 17, 2003 Author Posted March 17, 2003 well....... it is a bit scrached but its not as scrached as my other games and they work fine. does it matter where it is scrached? There's this thing out that's called a Game Doctor. yea i mentioned the disk cleaner i think the game dr is just a make of one, you know, a brand name.
xElaineMarleyx Posted March 19, 2003 Posted March 19, 2003 I think it matters more if the scratch is on the inner rings. I'm no technical wiz but I think that's where the computer reads all the info from. Let me know how it goes! .
TheGovernor Posted March 27, 2003 Posted March 27, 2003 The best scratch remover EVER is 'Brasso'. It is a British (I think) metal polisher and takes even the deepest scratches off. I use it all the time!!! It even fixed a really deep scratch in a DVD I had! THE GOVERNOR
