CD Comapatibility Woes
This is completely nuts! None of the CDs that I buy can install without a glitch!
Well, I am writing this after the 10th time I wanted to install Fifa 2007. At the end of the installation process, I always get an error saying that CRC checking failed. For the last time, I changed the CD and tried it ONE MORE TIME.
97% complete ... 98% complete ......... 99% complete ........ ERROR MESSAGE AGAIN!
I am totally upset. Most of the CDs that I purchase will have some sort of problem, whether be it installation errors, file transfer errors or just plain scratches! Ugh! And the shopkeeper doesn't want to change the faulty discs! One time he is very friendly and the next time he won't even recognize you!
This is totally absurd. All the discs that are locally burnt in our country (NPP, AZE, etc,) are downright unprofessional - they just care about making money, not the fact that you could even install the game in the first place! The soluion to this problem? Get Malaysian CDs/DVDs. They might not be original ones or cost as much, but they are the next best thing.
They cost around 250 taka for a single DVD (the local ones cost 100-150 taka), and in my opinion, they are worth the money. All the DVDs are golden discs and I have never encountered an error with them. They also have long shelf life.
So I guess that I am going to buy Malaysian DVDs/CDs afterall. I am just upset with our local ones!
