Install it the old method, open th ecd up and copy the files over.

If it works, cool, if not yeah, fucked cd.

yes..... seriously....... Currently getting it off limewire but limewire sucks ass, torrents do as well but I figure at least with a torrent I can just leave it on overnight and still be connected to a swarm rather than waking up and its been cut off at 98% like usual.



one that works at least...... with a half decent D/L rate
