Unworthy? nah, just unlucky....before you ebay it...which Direct are you
running? I had some problems with another game and directx 9....they say
you
cant uninstallit, but you can. It's just a PITA. try it on another
computer,
it might be the disk scratched, or it might be a bootleg disk (it uses a
securerom protection I think and wont run without the disk being the
original...it might install but never play. ) Speaking of which, did the
install go OK? if it did then contact EA and see if they will give you a
no
cd patch, and if they wont then search Google for "no cdc game fixes" and
try a few, but scan them forviruses first......actually I think I will do
that now, cd reading takes a lot of battery when you are on the road.
