Have you tried using another computer to burn the game onto CDs and then try to install? Worked for me.
Have a laptop so can i just copy the cds? Or copy cd contents to hd then burn to cd?

You should be able to copy the cds to your harddrive and burn the content afterwards. But remember that you need the original cd (1 or 3, depending on the patch version you're using) to run the game. If you get CRC errors with different drives, most likely that cd IS faulty and you should try to get a replacement.

My CD2 was faulty, got CRC errors and install failures etc., but it worked fine on my computer, not my dadīs. So I burned it on another CD and used that one instead of CD2 in the installation and it worked that way.
