That's a CD error. If you have a friend with a copy of freespace ask them for a copy of CD1.

If you don`t some people have reported that manually copying CD1 to your hard drive and then installing from there works.

BTW I got a problem. While playing FS2, sometimes it gets down and I land back with Windows, sometimes with white desktop.
Try to make something with it, if not I`ll SAY it in here.

wish me luck .

what do you mean manually copying CD1 to my HDD then installing from there do you mean to copy all the files from the CD to my HDD then run setup ?

Yeah. Or use daemontools to mount an image to your HD. That is, copy the entire CD to the hard drive, then make a fake drive letter that'll pretend to be the FS2 CD; but it's actually just sitting on your HD.

Well THAT was the reason, I found simply no other and I was in heavy fight, so...
But it is nice to realize that the game works rather as usuall.

HAve the same problems still, but others disappeared.
Sometimes CD didn`t work properly, finally the drive crashed yesterday.
I romoved it from the computer, with a screvdriver deconstructed to the basic parts than made it back and now it works just like a brand new one- though almoust 4 years old.
