    Default Completly not reading.

    I dont know if this is considered a bug, since I consider bugs in-game problems. But I cant get my mtw2 cd read on my computer. It doesnt read on my other comp either, but does read on my brother's labtop. The cd holder flashes its light a few times then it goes off.

    No idea whats wrong

    Is your drive a DVD drive?

    Nope, a CD drive. There is only one drive, and it works perfectly on any other game.

    M2TW is a DVD, you'd have to upgrade your drive to be able to play it on that computer. Yes though, most games try to avoid using DVD's as alot of people will unknowingly have this problem, but M2TW is 7 gig's uncompressed. So Using CD's it would require upwards of 7-8 of those lil suckers. I know quite a few games do give you the choice of buying the CD or DVD version. Not sure if this holds true with CA and M2TW though.

    You can buy a DVD re-writer for less than the cost of a game.It won't be long before the majority of games are on DVD only, so a DVD drive will be required for pc gaming.
