    sorry, the partition isn't a problem as i installed Steam on my games drive, just gave it as an example of Steam assuming things without good reason.

    interesting about the scratched disk thing, i will check tonight, nut its not like my ETW disks have had much opportunity to get scratched yet.

    disk 2 was never requested by the install process, so it cannot be that............

    I dunno, I just don't know.

    If I had a video of what happened, it may help...but I'm sorry.

    Did you buy the 'Special Edition' ?

    I did and got two discs, I think (IIRC) the second Disc installs the 'Special Edition' stuff - and I had to initiate that seperately - now I have two Steam launch Icons on the dekstop - standard and Special.

    BUT !!

    All the bugs in 1.2 are still there and RTI is totally unplayable using it - looks like paying the extra 10 bucks entitles me to special disregard in updates?

    It's probably of no use but I had to reinstall ETW last night - when all I really had to do was clear old mod files from the scripts folder - and of the approximate 14gb of installation files, around 10gb are on Disc 1 and over 4gb are on Disc 2, obviously making Disc 2 a substantial part.

    Is it possible that your internet connection was interrupted at any stage?

    Thought so.

    But a dual layer DVD can only hold 8.5gb IIRC, checking now.

    yup, its 8.5gb per disk max.
