Trouble installing a game

[Immortal Goat]

Back during the summer, my computer crashed on me. Well, that obviously meant all my game files went with it. Now I have installed many of my old games, and they work just fine. However, when I try to install Deus Ex, it always stops in the same place in the process. It gives me a message to try and clean my disc, and I did so, but it still doesn't work. Any ideas?

Obviously the CD is fuX0red.

I was afraid of that. Gotta buy a new copy then, I guess. Damnit, I was hoping to avoid that.

Not necessarily. There may only be an insignificant problem on the disc that your CD-ROM is having trouble reading.

The same thing happened to my Diablo 2 play disc, but my brother's drive could read it no problem. Try the disc in some other computers, and if you have to, burn a copy of it.

Deus Ex wasn't all that great anyways. :/

Wasn't the absolute BEST, but I still think it is a great game. The problem is that I know my computer at least USED to be able to run the game no problem. I beat it three times. I just wanted to play again cuz I was playing DX: Invisible War. I'll try putting it on other computers, though. thanks for the advice.

UPDATE: Chimp, I took your advice and tried it on another computer, and it stopped in the same place. I'm on my way out to buy a new copy. I never thought I'd say this, but I am so happy my game was messed up. At least in relation to my computer being messed up.

Well count yourself lucky you didn't format your PC like i did when i was trying ot get a fucked halo CD to work. :/

Shit I would have given you my copy for free.. dues ex sucks. I got it for free with my creative audigy and its gotta be one of the worse games i ever played.

Shut up. Deus Ex rules.

No stores had it, but that is why I love the "Buy it Now" feature on Ebay. Just got a brand new factory sealed copy for 12 bucks w/shipping and handeling. Yay!
