Hi - new here.

I recently purchased BfME, but have been unsuccessful in completing the installation. I'm pretty sure my pc meets all system requirements. The first time I tried install, it stopped just short of completing. Since then, installation attempts have stopped after inserting Disk 2. Also, I cannot uninstall whatever has found its way onto my pc in add/remove programs. I'm lost. Why can't I get this to work?

Thanks!
 
What exactly does it do when it stops installing? Does it give you an error message or does the installer just crash?
 
absolutely nothing. i don't get any error messages. the installation simply stops moving forward.
 
Have you tried leaving the install for while and seeing if it completes or gives any error messages? If it just sticks and keeps trying to read the CD-Rom then there could be a physical problem with the media (or a read error due to something else).

Yeah, could be a faulty disc. Have you tried it on a different cd drive/ computer?
 
Yes, I've tried leaving it for a while. It doesn't complete, it doesn't give error messages, and it doesn't continue trying to read the CD-ROM. I will try installation onto another computer later today. If that doesn't work, I'll try an exchange.

Thank you for your help so far!
