Well I was waiting for SPORE to come out for a long time (over a year). And I bought it the first day it came out. After I installed it the CD Stayed in the case besides when by brother used it. When I got my macbook the first thing I tried to do was install SPORE, only to find the install freezing at 80/90 files and the disk scratched up. My next idea was to take apart my external hard drive and use the controller with a dvd drive to make an external dvd drive, install failed again. I then got all the updated from apple, It froze. So I contact EA tech support and tell them my situation, they say "change the screen mode" LOL Can someone tell me how to do this to a game that won't install? They also wanted my MAC Profile with all my hardware info? I just want to know if you can do a manual install (The corrupt shit on my DVD is on the hdd of my other system), or if there's a way to get a replacement cd. I wonder why SPORE is downloaded on p2p apps so much :P

EA has turned into something bad. They have all these stupid DRMs and licensing things. It wasn't always like this. Did you try copying everything or burning a new disk?

I might try a new disk.

I mean it's not like you didn't pay for it. I think EA's just a little too liberal with DRM when it comes to protecting their games.
