Title: Operation flashpoint not working
Post by: Graeme Heddle on September 06, 2008, 16:45:59

Yesterday (6th sept.) I installed the game Operation Flashpoint on my computer and it was working perfectly, but today when I tryed to get onto it it kept telling me to 'insert the correct disk and retry' >:(, I made sure that the operation flashpoint disk was in the disk drive but it keeps saying the same thing >:(. What could be causing this to happen?

In my computer is the disc showing up, is the disc flipped the right way, do you hear the disc start spinning when it is inserted?

Yes the disc is the right way up, i always check before trying it.

Did you install any add-ons? You should always put in the latest version of the game

Hi Graeme,

Did you patch it to (I think it is) 1.96 allready? You might want to do that, if memory serves me it will run without a disc when you've patched it.

I've just realised it also seems to be affecting istalation of new CD-ROMs >:( (although luckily its not affecting games already installed such as shipsim, if it did I definetly wouldn't be happy).
