    Ok, I was reinstalling SoA and ToB, when I got a weird error. I did a full install with SoA, and tried to do a full install with ToB...but every time I tried I got this error:
    Data Transfer error
    Catastrophic Error

    Why is this happening? :rolling:

    Try cleaning your CDROM drive, the laser lense may have a dust speck that occasionally gets in the way. Also try cleaning the CDs.

    LMAO!!! I couldn't get the CD ROM drive to read the cleaning disk, so I took the drive apart. Guess what I found in the way of the laser??? A dead moth! After removing it it installed just fine. I wonder how that thing got in there? :rolling:

    I found a moth in my Floppy Drive once - A huge one. All my Floppies got corrupted because of it :mad:
