Help! Cant get a game to install!

[Llama]

I'm trying to Install Empire Empire: The Art of Conquest (Old game but sick)
I get this error message and it makes it impossible to install.
Anyone got any ideas?

That basically means it can't read the disc. Just clean it off and try again.


I love the game to bits but the AI cheats so bad it's not even funny. I always loved playing islands, taking a huge navy and just slaughter there island defenses. Then storm them with ground troops. It was...very effective. - Winston Churchill

Run it under some water, clean it off(Wipe going from the center of the disc to the end of the disc, not round and round in circles).

Yell at it

and finally
Try again.

Torrent it and use your own CD key.

Torrent it and use your own CD key.

tru....could do this, since you've purchased it previously anyhow...

try ripping the cd with a ripping program and see if it gives you an error on the same file.
