I cannot even get my CD-ROM to read the CD, FFS!!! Do you need a CD-DVD ROM drive for 2005 or just a regular CD-ROM?

Could there be another technical reason why my CD-ROM (and CD-R) won't ******* read the disc?!?!?!?!

I swear to God, **** like this drives me up the ******* wall!!!


GRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!!!

No you don't need a DVD Rom drive to install or play the game for the North American version. Your disc might be de defective.

Are you getting any disc read errors or is it just not being recognized?

When I go to 'My Computer', the football comes up, showing that the disc is in the drive. But I cannot get the Auto-Run to function, and I cannot get it to run by using 'Run' d:/setup, either.

I brought it here to work and it was fine so the software is okay.

WTF????:f***:

Have you tried installing another disc into your home pc to see if you can get autorun to work?

Have you made any recent changes to your configuration lately?

No changes to my configuration (that I know of), although the PC was a bit gimpy last night.

Any ideas what it could be that might be interfering with my ROM drives? The PC worked fine until I went to install 2005 late last night.

A virus maybe?

First try putting in A DIFFERENT DISC into your CD rom tray just to see if Autorun will work. Put in a music cd, anything, just to check if there is a problem with your cd rom. If you can't get autorun to work with a different cd then the problem is with your CD rom or something might be corrupt.

If you're running XP, perhaps you could go back to a restore point to where you knew your pc was running OK, no?

Cheers, Teddy

I thought of the restore point but I think I have it disabled.

I'll try another disc (AGAIN!) to see if it auto-runs. I was having issues with both my CD and CDR drives, last night. My PC was just hanging when I tried to start the disc and I got the old "my computer - no responding" message. There is something that's dragging my PC down, for sure. It was just crawling. I couldn't even restart from the 'Start' menu, or from the power button on the front. I literally had to unplug the PC and plug it back in.

I did a fresh XP Pro install about 3-4 weeks ago, which was a toal drag but needed to be done. I don't want to go through that crap again already.
