Try downloading again if you didnt already.

downloading what?

This happened to me. Try Uninstalling (if possible) and then restarting your computer. This worked for me. I wasn't able to uninstall, so every time I put in disc 1 to start the install over, it would go to the game start screen (where you can select to config the game.) I had to use the run command to restart the install.

Maybe you've got a faulty disk,
Try borrowing your friends disk or something

I think I have put Disk 2 when I was asked for non-existing Disk 5 (or was it Disk 1 ? I don't remember), and it worked. Try either Disk 1 or Disk 2, and tell us if it has solved your problem. http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...iles/smile.gif

Are you talking about it asking for disk 5 during install, if you are, you need to rename your cdrom drive to something other than cdrom like cdrom01 and change your autoexec.bat file to go along with the change. I did this too when I started and I couldn't even install. After this it didn't ask for more disks than I had. I hope this helps! http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/noncgi/smiles/elf.gif

Also, to change the name of your cdrom drive you need to edit your config.sys file, in the line that says something like:
DEVICE=C:\CDROM\TAISATAP.SYS /D:CDrom just change it to
DEVICE=C:\CDROM\TAISATAP.SYS /D:CDrom01 and edit your autoexec.bat and it will work.

Yeah, the disk five thing seems to have a 50/50 chance of happening! It did not ask for it with me but did with my friend!

I remember someone telling me that the disk five thing only happens when you try to install the game in a DvD rom drive.
Also if your disk is copiedhttp://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...es/biggrin.gif

So if ur installing it in a DVD drive switch.
Hope this helps.

That's just my opinion, I could be wrong.
