Have you tried using all originals for installing ? Don't install a crack after you install Ghost Recon, you have to install all expansions and then install a crack for the latest (which should be cuban one if I remember correctly). So install from the original ghost recon cd and then try to install the expansion packs.

If u have 'a bad ghost recon cd' then UBI would have told you how to go about obtaining a new cd. They are one of the good eggs in a world of bad eggs.

My backup of GR, with the crack in place of the original exe, installs properly AND Island Thunder installs over that. No problems whatsoever.
