Correct DVD problem.

[johntarmac]

Hi, I've played the game for many hours without any problems but after a reformat when I try to start the game I get a message to insert the correct DVD-ROM.

I installed both discs, Kingdoms and then the 1.5 patch.
Disc is in good shape without any scratches.

I'm going to try a reinstall soon but just wanted to ask if I'm missing something before I do.

Cheers

If now it's Win 7 or Vista, disable the UAC and install in C:\Games.

Sorry, I should have said It's XP.
And I only installed Britania from Kingdoms.

Cheers

It's best to install all the campaigns before the patch as it patches all of them.

There are also dvd-roms that don't like the Medieval2/Kingdoms format Sega used five years ago. You may have one of them.
If you have a buddy, try it on his machine.

Thanks for your input irishron.

Got a second dvd-rom today and it now runs fine

Cheers

Glad it all worked out good. Enjoy playing. And you're welcome.
