When I asks me to put in disk 2, I do. It doesnt read it and just ejects the disk back out of my machine. Disk 1 works fine. I went back to the store and got it replaced but still nothing.

I have a simuler probblem when i went to get the game on the day it came out. Disk 1 worked perfectly but when the time came for disk 2 It only worked for a few minutes. Then it poped up with the "Disk is scratched and/or dirty and needs to be clean" BS a few times. Then i noticed this big ass scratch on the disk...I've done everything i could but get a new one....I'm alittle disappointed on how it was some how scratched on shipment. If thats that issue.

Mine is fine, no scratches. The disk wont even show up in My Computer. When I put it in the tray and go "Retry" it sounds like the disk is skipping or something in there, like its too big for the tray...

I also could not get the game to load when it asked for disc 2. It simply wouldn't recognize the disc switch.
At first I thought it might be my DVD drive, so I swapped it out with a different one... no luck. Aftre a couple hours of troubleshooting everything from drivers to UAC, I finally read a couple forum posts about disc 2 swap problems. They mentioned a problem with the installers and creating an iso of disc 1 or torrent the game.. not sure about that.
I decided to simply connect 2 dvd drives. I set one up as a slave with disc 2 already in it. Then I simply ran disc one in the other drive and when it got the switch disc, it didn't even ask, just loaded the rest of the game.
I will mention that in my first attempt to load the game this way, my PC stalled out at about 90% loaded because it had a screensaver. I had to start over without screensaver, then it completed.
So far, I haven't had any problems with the game since the difficult install, it's been great. There might be an easier solution, but that was my work around.

If you're having problems in that your disc 2 just won't work, here are some things to try:
1) If you have DVD43 installed on your system, disable it. I've read it can interfere with reading the discs. If you don't know what DVD43 is, then you don't have it.
2) If you have access to a different DVD drive, try hooking it up to your machine and see if it will read the disc. This is what I had to do when it failed to read disc 2 on my machine.
3) If your drive will read the disc, but won't install, you can try mounting an image and installing from that. Instructions from another forum member:
4) You can try DLing EA Download Manager and using your CD key to register the game on that. Then DL the digital version.
5) Try updating your DVD drive's firmware.
6) If none of that works, you can try returning the game to your retailer and exchanging for a new copy. Some people have reported exchanging has worked for them.
Good luck, and post back if any of this works for you.

Step 1. uninstal all copies of me2
Step 2. put cd2 in your cd tray
Step 3. Useing deamon tools or a program like that make an image of the cd
Step 4. Mount said image of disk 2
Step 5. put cd 1 in cd tray
Step 6. instal, it shouldnt ask for disk 2 becuase you have it mounted in a virtual drive
Step 7. ???
Step 8. PROFIT!
Also
to make sure you've got everything you need your mass effect folder at
the end of the instal should total roughly 11.4GB if it's less you are
missing something smack yourself and start from step 1.

Do you have disk 1 or disk 2 in the drive? It will only work with disk 1.
