half life 2 "hl2.cab" problem
when i try to install half life 2, it tells me it can't read hl2.cab. if i try to copy the file off the dvd i get a cyclic redundancy check error. can i get a copy of hl2.cab off someone please? or failing that a copy of the game. i have my own cd-key so there's nothing illegal about it. thanx
and does anyone know if i can make an iso of the dvd and mount it on a virtual drive and install it that way once i get hl2.cab? Will that make valve think the game is stolen?

Let me know how you get on.
edit- Oh, duh, good call animal.
and i can't bring it back cos my gf can't find the receipt :bawling:
i tried your suggestion already animal. it tells me i have to have to have hl2 installed to register it as a hard copy version. but thanks anyway
If none of that works, you'll prolly need a new drive. It's happened to me way too many times; first the drive has issues reading data, and eventually it can't see the CD at all.
