I bought a perfectly legit copy of Civ III Gold Edition (the packaging says Firaxis, the instructions inside say Take 2 Games) - it comes with two discs:
Civilization III Gold Edition
and
Civilization III Play the World Expansion Pack
Everything appeared to install fine, but when I try to play it says:
Disk read error:
"Please insert Civilization III: Complete Play Disc into CD Drive"
Neither of the discs I have will work. What gives?
Thanks in advance - I noticed a similar thread in the stickies, but that seemed to apply to patches.
Could patching potentially help this problem? No clue when this particular cash-in edition first appeared, or why it's licensed by Take 2 instead of Firaxis (did they buy them out?).
