Same error .. I think the file on the disk is corrupt since it copies fine ... corruption only shows up when the files is uncompressed. Collector's Edition.



! C:\\Temp\\rebuilt.campaign_vo_english.rar: CRC failed in modules\\single player\\audio\\vo\\en-us\\vo\\ntb100cr_elf_female.fsb. The file is corrupt

! C:\\Temp\\rebuilt.campaign_vo_english.rar: CRC failed in modules\\single player\\audio\\vo\\en-us\\vo\\orz200_figor.fsb. The file is corrupt.



I was able to get around the problem and at least see the same by manually un-rarring the files.

one other trick might be to disconnect your computer from the internet and try disabling your antivirus while installing sometimes those can conflict with stuff. Just remember to turn it back on before reconnecting to the net.

I managed to unrar everything and put it in a directory manually. Got the game started and working fine, but I cannot install any update patches or download content because it says the game isn't installed on my computer.

Why don't they help us? We paid for the game and we can't even play. :S

[Gryffis]

i have the same problem can anyone help pls???

At least half of all complaints on this subject are the same thing, and it has been asked and answered with some regularity.  Your DVD drives are dirty, or have firmware that conflicts with WinRAR (or some part of the install suite that EA decided to use) somehow. 

I tried three DVD drives.  The first two were clean, but the install aborted with each of them.  My oldest DVD drive, an old Sony, is the only one that worked at first.  I used it and installed across my LAN.  I have another drive, a Plextor, that also worked, when I got around to trying it.  

The most common fix is copying everything to the Hdd and installing from there.  This applies to the DVD copy, not any digital download, of course.  But you can also beg, borrow, or rent an external DVD drive.

Mass Effect is unrelated to anything other than Star Force DRM, because it has a Sony ROOTKIT, which can be blamed for countless problems.  Don't make such off the wall comparisons.  Totally meaningless in conbtext.

It is possible to manually circumvent this, as I had to in order to get the game installed.

If you're doing it from the DVD, you'll need to first copy everything onto your hard drive - once done, make copies of your textures.rar, core.rar and any other .rar files bugging out. 

Then go into the originals and delete every file that's over 150mb or so (and any other files that are causing problems). The installer should then run fine. Once its done, go to the copies of the .rar files and manually extract the files you deleted using 7zip, or any other program that will extract files from .rar even if it detects CRC errors.

Then just put these in the game directory in the path indicated in the RAR file. Once done, the game should run absolutely fine.

Please bear in mind that this isn't an official solution - just one that I got to work. I can't promise that it won't break the game at some later stage, but you will at least be able to play it.

Just FYI y'all: I tried installing on 2 separate machines, both running Vista Home Premium 64-bit, using an image of the disc (to eliminate the drive as a cause). On one it worked the 1st time, on the other it got stuck extracting at the same place every time. Completely random, and I tried *alllll* the work-a-rounds. (Copy to hard-drive, repair the archive, (core.rar in my case,) update InstallShield, shorten the installation path name...*everything*.)

So, right now, it looks like the only *true* solution is get a different computer and hope that it works. =/

[fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu--]

hold onto your receipts kids, mass effect had this same problem and they never fixed that after 2 years.

I've tried installing from the drive, copied the disc onto the hdd and tried a manual install, tried installing it over a network from another computer (someone on a forum said that worked for them), made an image file and installed from a virtual drive, and i even tried a torrented copy of it and nothing works.

good luck, because with this company's track record, if you're having this issue the game will never work.



im gonna go wipe my OS and start from scratch and see if that does anything.

[rypchyord]

Greets,

Had the same issue here.

It seems that there are two or three manifestations of problem. Some have it on the movie packages, some in the campaign and some in the core files. (hm, ok on reflection that seems to cover almost everything..)
I dont have a dirty drive and the disks are 1 day old untainted jewels of the collection, albeit that there are bad files on it.. I'm really wondering if the cause of this is a manufacturing media fault or a consequence of the manufacture or protection process. (although, I have Mass Effect and had/have no issues there but is not a safe comparison without more information)
I eventually got the game to install by copying the content of the install DVD to harddisk and manually extracting the effected archives (which ment watching the install to see which archives it died ignobly on) and preserving the, apparently, corrupted files. (Reparing the archive did not help me.) Then repacking the archive, using store level compression for speed.
The installer was able to get through and the game runs and patches with no problems.

I checked this in Vista64Business and XP32SP3 to make sure that the OS and tool kits were not a cause of the problem. I had to do the same 'recovery' in both operating systems to get the game to install and run.
I would hazard that this problem is going to manifest slightly different across users' DVD hardware and disks if it is indeed a media problem (drive or disk)..

What I would really like to know is if the files are actually corrupted... [ before I start asking about other ingame bugs that, after reading the forum, I don't think are linked to this ]
This is list of the files that failed CRC check on my install.. and their MD5s.

Just as a point of interest, those MD5's are the same as what I get, yet I had no problems during the installation.

[rypchyord]

Thanks! That clears things up a bit.



Doing a bit of directed googling it seems RaR CRC problems when the files are not corrupted is a known issue, although the cause is only alluded to. Probably worth runing a few system tests...



Apologies for any premature conclusions

[fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu--]

rypchyord, that still doesnt work for me either.

neither did reinstalling win7...and then trying all of that stuff again. i think i might just be fu#kd.

Oh really?!.....so the fact i tried another copy of DA:O on same computer with same drive and it installed fine? That doesnt suggest its something to do with BioWare/EA games now does it?

[fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu--]

does anyone have any clue how to do a manual install of the game?

i've been able to extract all the files and none of them are corrupted, but i dont know where to put them in what folders yadda yadda. a manual install would be bypassing whatever "Data error" issue we're running into here.

[MagicNight_CN]

I got the same problem and I installed the game manually. My solution is as below:



1. Extract the .rar files from /DATA directory in your DVD to your hard disk (eg: D:\\Games\\DAO ) one by one using WINRAR.



2. If any error occurred, just remember the file name which got a CRC error, then find it in the RAR files and extract it separately again until you have all files extracted.



3. After you have done, install the drivers and support files in /software directory on your installation DVD.



4. Install DirectX



5. run "Dragon Age_code.exe" from /data directory on your DVD and fill in your cdkey.



6. run "DAOriginsConfig.exe" from the /bin_ship directory in which you extracted the files and config the game options. You can create desktop and start menu shortcuts by clicking the options in "Repair" TAB.



7. run "DAOriginsLauncher.exe" and play the game.



ps: I'm not very sure that if you should import a game registry.



sorry for my poor English...

you should import a registry file of DAO
make an empty .txt file and copy the following lines into it (without -----------)

--------------------start fr------------------------------------
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SOFTWARE\\BioWare]

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SOFTWARE\\BioWare\\Dragon Age]
"Language"="en"
"ProductName"="Dragon Age: Origins"
"Path"="E:\\Dragon Age"
"Flavour"="DVD"
"GUID"="{AEC81925-9C76-4707-84A9-40696C613ED3}"
"GameExplorer"="{1F3CF85C-0F86-44F7-84E5-415E11196429}"

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SOFTWARE\\Electronic Arts]

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SOFTWARE\\Electronic Arts\\Electronic Arts]

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SOFTWARE\\Electronic Arts\\Electronic Arts\\Dragon Age]
"DisplayName"="Dragon Age: Origins"
"Locale"="en_US"
----------------------------end above---------------------------------------------------

and change the line "Path"="E:\\Dragon Age" to your path where you extracted the game files.  (if you have extracted the files into d:\\games\\Dragon Age, then the line should be modify to "Path"="d:\\\\\\\\games\\\\\\\\Dragon Age") notice here we use 2  "\\" instead 1 "\\"  .

save the .txt file and rename the extension to .reg, then double click it and ignore the waring dialog.

Don't forget to run Dragon Age_code.exe from your DVD to write the cdkey to your system registry.

Just got the collectors edition, discovered I had this problem and went back to the store. They agreed to hand me a normal copy so I tried to install that and I get the same error, at a different file...

I am not computer-wise enough to understand the offered solutions (the unpacking would be doable but the registery editing is outside my knowlegderange...) so I feel rather dissapointed. Was really looking forward to playing this game and payed full price for it too...

As the shop is closed now and I will not be able to visit them again before the return period expires I am not very happy atm...

edit:
Been tinkering with it for an hour, the files are extractable with 7rar so its the unpacker that is creating the problem.

Hello folks

Just wanted to let you know that I was having this problem, but now - problem solved (for me at least)

I have 12gb RAM (6x2gb) in my system, I took out all but one stick, tried the installation, and it worked!

I put the sticks back in afterwards and all seems well.

I don't know if this was because simply having a full 12gb was freaking out my system somehow, or due to some of my RAM being faulty. I'll run memtest to be sure.

I don't know if this will work for anyone else, but it might be worth a try.

Good luck!

Optical drives can get dirty from one day to the next when a small piece of lint gets onto the lens. 

EA has not admitted why these Data Error problems occur so often, they just offer to replace the Hard Copy with a digital copy. 

I think they included something besides a disk check on DA and ME-2, to prevent disk copying, and it conflicts with far too many DVD drives, including my own Plextors.  There are several work-arounds, none of which should be necessary. 

You can borrow an external DVD drive, you can swap drives with another PC whose DVD isn't excluded by the false tracks that were added, you can install across a LAN, you can try copying to hard drive folders and then installing from inside of those, or go to the EA Store and use the hard copy's CD Key as the unlock for your digital download (since I didn't have to do that, I am unfamiliar with the specifics).
