So I decided to install my old good nfsu1 again, and... OMG it stucks @ 81%!!

Apparently the CD is scratched. Someone has played nfsu1 a lot! ---> /me...


Well,,, is there a human way to make the game run? I spent 50€ on it and I can't play!

I saw yesterday a cheap edition of the NFSU1 (a new edition with a crappier cover, like the PS2 platinum series but in PC) for 10€. It's cheap, but I would feel like an idiot buying the same game again...

Suggestions?

And... is there a software/hardware tool to fix a scratched CD?

or... what if I send the original CD to EA games? Would they send me a new one? (yes, it sounds a bit hilarious, but they should!)

there are tools out there to fiz scratched CDs... i dont know if they are available where u're from, but maybe the internet can be of a better help, no?

the things are called Scartch Removal Kits... iono how well they work cuz i've never needed to use one

I think your gonna have to buy a new copy, or download a copy.

Or isn't there a film you can buy for cd's that you stick on and it fills in the scratches, but there's no way EA would give you a new copy if the scratching wasn't their fault.

I recently reinstalled nfsu1 to play online mode again, but after I installed the latest patch which is now needed to play multiplayer, it just makes my computer crash

From EA's support:
Right-click on your desktop and choose New and then Folder.
Name the folder Disk Images.
Open the Disk Images folder.
Right-click in the folder and choose New and then Folder.
Name the folder Disk1.
Repeat step 4 to create another folder; name this folder Disk2.
Insert disk 1 into the drive; close all windows that may appear.
Open My Computer.
Right-click on the disk drive containing disk 1 and choose Open.
Click Edit at the top of the window and choose Select All.
Click Edit again and choose Copy.
Close the window.
Open the Disk Images folder.
Right-click on the Disk1 folder and choose Paste.
When the files finish copying, repeat steps 7-14 for disk 2, copying it into its respective folder.
When the copying is complete, remove all disks from any drives.
Open the Disk1 folder in Disk Images.
Double-click on the Autorun icon (this icon is the EA Logo).
After installation you will be asked to insert the correct CD; insert disk 2 to start the game.
You may delete the Disk Images folder once installation is complete.

Might work...

I say you should just buy the crappy one and put the disc in your original cover. Then you can throw away the crappy cover! . What a scheme lol!

You can also just download the cd's and use your seriall code from the box, that always works for me.

NFSU1 graphics are wonderful btw... I like the aspect of the game better than the nfsu2 one.

Of course they are... much better game aswell
