Try cleaning your BC disc. Warm soapy water should get any marks off. Don't use abrasives tho.

I have washed the disk and now whenever it gets to 65% loading it freezes and crashes.

anyone got any pearls of wisdom?

Try copying all files from the disk to a directory on your HDD, if that works, then something else is amiss, but I currently fear either the disk is too badly scratched, or part of your hardware is dieing.

If it does manage to copy everything, then keep the disk in your Disk Drive, and run the Autorun.exe.

Run a scandisk on your D drive too.

Open a Command Prompt and type

Code: [Select]

chkdsk D: /f /r

And opening a command prompt is Start->Run and then type in cmd and press Ok
