HELP!!! Install off disc Stopping before finished!

[Hosky]

Please help me. I just got the full on collectors edition of Empire: Total War, and when I install, it stops in the middle of disk one. I have done all the steam things and activated it and got fast internet, but it just doesn't work. Can anyone help?

Is it just me or is steam just going to scare PC game-buyers off? Steam really Sucks!

I hope your answers will help other gamers with similar problems.

There isn't a "collectors edition" of ETW. There is the standard version and the Special Forces Edition.

So, where did you get this "collector's edition" come from?

If you have fast internet you can simply register the game on Steam and download it and not use the DVDs at all.

the collectors edition is exclusive to EB Games, it came with an illustrated campaign map, special forces edition, a nautical compass, a steel flask and a lovely little wooden box to keep it all in.

and my internet is just fast, i dont have 15 gbs of it

Well, I learn something new everyday! Hope you put the steel flask to good use.

I'd suggest taking the game back as it's faulty - the disk 1 getting stuck shows that. I did read somewhere else in the forum a similar problem.
