Then you should copy cd one on a blank disk. This is perfectly legit, since you can make a copy of an original game for home-use (e.g. You have two computers and have to use them alternately)

I had this same error occurring once with a Sims game, there was a problem with the disk, also with a .cab file.

 

This was due to the bad quality of that cd, the data couldn't be read properly by my computer.

I copied it and it worked.

 

PN: I don't know how to explain it in English properly, I'm belgian you know :D So I hope you understood what I'm trying to say.

You should also check if the CD is dirty or scratched....

 

If it's dirty,then just clean it with soft material

 

If it's scratched you're preatty much screwed...unless you bring the game back for a refund
