here we go again. just got cfs and after about i min sys locked up. got new cfs

same problem.. Called MS tech support and after many trials i was told that the
program will not work with certain CD Roms. the reason is that many CD roms
will not read to the end of the disk.I asked what they were going to do about
this and was told they are researching the problem.im not going out and buy a
new CD Rom so i hope all works for you guys.they also said they were having
problems with this firt batch and will release a new one on 4 Nov. Lots of luck
sim fans.

Hi, I just bought CFS and installed it. I didn't have any problems whatsoever.
I have a Dell 350, Permedia 2 8 meg video board with a Monster 3D card,
Crystal wavetable sound chip, 64 meg 'o RAM, MS Precision Pro joystick. It
runs at about 30-35 fps and it works great. I really like this game. It has
to be one of the coolest games I've seen yet.

Well just sifting thru all the messages seem half the people installed just
fine the other half ran into the same problem I did. CFS will install up to the
55% mark then stall, I called MS Support and found out that if you have a
DVD/CD-ROM player you will get this bug!! Also in trobleshooting this problem
with the Tech I found out that my Goldstar 8X cdrom exhibits the same symtoms
he suggested I get another copy So off to Best Buy I went and got anotheer copy
same thing!. However in talking to MS again they will send you another copy
with a fix if you want to wait approx. 5-6 weeks. Oh well I waited this long.
By the way Best Buy's policy is you can exchange defective software forever but
they will not give you your money back!!
