Replacement Extra Features CD (Europe)?

Dogsbody · 01-18-07, 01:56 PM

Some years ago, when I was fairly new to computers, I bought a copy of F22ADF. I inserted into the CD Rom drive and expected the installation program to begin running.

Suddenly some music began to play. It was Barry Manilow. I'm ashamed to say I sat there for 15 mins listening to Barry manilow thinking it was some sort of intro and any second now the setup program would launch.

Of course it turned out that, although the CD Rom was printed as if it was a flight simulation, it was actually Barry Manilow's greatest hits.

I was younger then and new to computers. I guess those 15 mins are gone forever.... but it taught me to recognise an installation procedure....

That happened to me too, with a game CD that contained a different game. The store where I got it usually doesn't accept returns of opened software, but they made an exception after verifying that, indeed, the CD had the wrong label (or, actually, the correct label had the wrong CD).
