thanks for replying.. ok,il give u a run down of whats going on.. bought the game friday and when i installed it for the first time it crashed during installation saying "a problem occurred when tryinf to transfer the file (file name here) from the media "....so i thought i re boot the machine and try again. it installed fully this time but when i went to launch it i got the error that i posted in my first message (above)... i updated ALL my drivers - graphics card etc.. no joy. so i thought maybe a dodgy disc. brought the game back, got a new copy,but even when i went install that it wud crash during installation "a problem occurred...." blah blah blah... oh yeah, the file that crashed during installation was a DIFFERENT file each time!! i tried installing it tons of time but always crashed. then i updated my cdrom/dvd drive and tried the installation again. and at the first attemp it installed! i thought it wud finally work but then when i went to launch the game it said "fifa06.exe had encountered a problem...."

my head is melted! is it my pc? when i installed the game i used the EA help file in the fifa folder to determine whether or not ur pc is powerful enough to run the game. as i knew it would, my pc passed the test with flying colours.. i havnt installed any patches or fixes..this is just using the original cd...

if u have any suggestions as to what might be wrong id appreciate it greatly! wasnt tiger woods for the pc recalled last year cos of a dodgy batch of cds?

thanks
