Big thank you to Fishbed for giving me a little ArmaII introduction tonight and also thank you to everybody else for a great gaming evening! Had tons of fun and look forward to the next time. It's a shame that MM and TT are a little late for me over here in the UK but I'll try to make it one day

Thank you Tbag

We did good last night, and I hope to play with you again.

Glad you got in okay. Sorry that no serious play went on last night. We usually have co-op sessions scheduled for Monday and Thursday.

I was gonna ask, what the hell happened last night?

I was idling on TS but grading exams that I had to have done for today. There were a half dozen people or so on, I think they played Domination for a few hours. Not sure where Magnum was.

I'm not around because I'm having trouble getting ArmA2 to install after switching to Windows 7.

I'm getting a "CRC error" about three files that won't copy off the DVD. Haven't had time to check it further.

hey adlabs have you tried updating your firmware/drivers for your dvd drive? IIRC people who were getting the same error fixed it by doing that. Seems to be linked to the copy protection, or the disk being damaged/dirty.

I was wondering where everyone was too. I looked in at the server at 10:30 and no one was playing. I ended up watching The Office instead so it wasn't all bad.

Thanks Jojo. I think my DVD drive is updated. Still no joy. Tried cleaning the DVD, which had only a few little scrapes around the edge where it sits in the DVD tray.

Can't even copy files off the DVD to the HDD, since the errors appear there too.

So I'm trying to install now on my backup PC which runs XP, and of course had a different DVD drive.

I started to buy another copy of the game, but if this CRC error is related to copy protection, I don't want to throw my money away and have this happen again.

Will report back.
