I've had Halo CE off of my computer for a while, and i decided to reinstal it, but when the installation gets to 78%, it can't go any further. My guess is that my disc is severley scratched. I just wanna know if there is anywere online were i can download Halo, scince i have no disc to use now.

Here you will need this to help you get your foot out of the back of your throat, looks llike its in there pretty deep. And what is that on your face? Egg?! *hands Kim a washcloth*

No, you need to buy a new CD. Maybe you should take better care of your CDs.

Ignore static, he's still just cranky that Iggwilv beat him in FFA slayer the other week.

Consider buying a CD scratch remover kit, available pretty much wherever anything is sold, anywhere. If your problem is really due to a mangled disc, this might be a low cost solution to get you back up and running. Also, if you've got your own key, see if any of your friends have HaloPC that will lend you their disc so you can install it.

Don't buy a scratch removing kit, just boil the disc instead.

Heat the water to a boil, turn off the heat and drop the disc in, in forty seconds or so take it out, dry it off and you're good.

* I know this works for DVDs, so I assume it would work for CDs too; but I don't know for sure.
** I accept no responsibility if you mangle your disc.

And no, this isn't a joke.

It's true. I would have got a screenshot but I forgot I changed my X-fire hot keys.

I don't know about boiling water(?) but toothpaste seems to work pretty well ( its helped - not completely repaired but helped one of my most scratched discs)
Good luck. Im sure we could even rip you off a copy and send it over to you.

Except I'm pretty sure that's against rules and is likely to get you blacklisted.

Yes, I am a hypocrite, and I'm sorry. I really do mean well, but I'm not running on all cylinders.

Everytime someone buys a copy of Halo 2 Vista, a puppy dies.

I got a new copy for my bday, and it cost $10 CAD. Can you afford that?

I could afford to use a ten dollar bill as a napkin. That doesn't mean I'm rich, I'm just saying.
