Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy install problem

[gballard]

Man this sucks...I can't even get the game to install...I get this...

 

[Bronx Bomber]

catastrophic failure, eh?

 

[gballard]

yep...thats what it said...no idea why tho

 

[gballard]

hmmm...i may have figured it out on my own...I had daemon tools running...i just turned that off and now its installing...weird...

 

[Bronx Bomber]

im guessing you bought the game? cause normally i would say redownload and reinstall. but it sounds like the file itself cant be found on the disk

 

[gballard]

yep...came in the mail today...

 

[Bronx Bomber]

yea, i always turn off daemon tools. i wonder why it did that though...

 

[Bronx Bomber]

i think its interesting that if it cant load a picture, its a catastrophic failure.

 

[gballard]

well...i think i might know now that i look back at what i did...first thing i did was make ISO images of the 2 discs...then mounted the first one with daemon tools and did the install that way....then when it was installed...i made sure the first disc was mounted and tried to start the game...and it kept wanting the first disc....the ISO of the first disc was indeed mounted in daemon tools...maybe it just doesnt like virtual drives?

 

[gballard]

yep...i took daemon tools outta the picture and all is fine now...very strange....

 

[Bronx Bomber]

ahh...now i see the whole picture.
