Alright here is a real brainteaser for you.

First of my specs: 
os: windows 7 64bit
cpu: intel e6600
ram: 4GB
video: nvidia 8800gts

Basically I got enough to handle the game. I recently bought ME1 and today it dropped down the mail. Joy of joys I sprang to action straight away... Chose installation path and so on and so forth, the installation started just fine and kept on going at a good pace. Until it hit about 81% of extracting ISACT-rar. There it just stops and nothing happens. No error message, no freeze, just nothing happens at all. As if the installation is paused. I re-try installing many-a-times now but still, it freezes at about the same point.

So i try to manually extract the rars and install the work-around the manual way that is suggested on the forum here. Turns out I can extract all rars just fine EXCEPT the one called "isact.rar". Try it on my roomies comp, which is basically same as mine, and same thing. isact.rar won't extract, it just freezes winrar. In sheer desperation I try my gfs computer, an lo an behold! Not only does isact.rar extract just fine, the game also installs without a hitch on her computer. And it doesn't meet the system reqs by a long-shot.

So can anyone explain what in the frack is going on here? If it was a DVD-ROM conflict, wouldn't all rars be non-extractable and not just the one?

PS The DVD-ROM has latest firmware and everything else checks out. I'm just thoroughly confuzzled..

I would try copying the file onto the HD prior to extraction to see if that helps, or see if you can get the rar file onto your GF's PC and then take it from there somehow, like via a usb memory stick or some such.



I've run into this issue before myself when I have a disk or DVD-ROM that's slightly bad.

When we run into this locally we get a new disk, replace our drive, or find a PC that can read the unreadable files and transfer them to the one that needs it somehow.
