I need help getting a game installed

[NaterTater 99]

I have been trying to get a disc copy of command and conquer 3 to download on my laptop for hours. For awhile it will say "updating component registration" and then it will pop up with "Data error (cyclic redundancy check)." I have tried troubleshooting and nothing is working. You guys are my last hope. I have windows 10 64 bit and the game came out in 2007.

CRC error means one or more files are corrupt. Not much we can do. "Disk copy" as in this isn't the original disk?

It is the original disk I just meant it isn't a digital version of the game

You should quote people when you reply, otherwise there's no notification. Well, "disk version" would've been a bit more clear in this case

 

As I said, CRC (cyclic redundancy check) is basically an integrity check for files. If that fails it means some file isn't copied from the CD to your hard drive as it should. Maybe check the disk for scratches or dust.

Do you use Steam?  If you still have the cd key, you might be able to activate the game on Steam, bypassing possible corrupt file issues with your cd's.
