Hi,
I've installed Eu2 on my compter before (Windows XP) and it worked perfectly fine. I recently uninstalled the game and when i tried to reinstall it today, the files get to 3% finished (it is intalling the file "eu2_intro.bink") and then says "There is an I/0 error which has occoured while installing a file. This is normally caused by bad installtion media or a corruptinstalltion file." and asks me to abort or retry. The problem persists if I retry. I have no idea what is wrong! Thanks for any help!
 
It's either a problem with your PC or the EU2 CD. Try installing on another PC as a test.
 
Two things to try first.
1) Clean the CD with a glass cleaner like windex. Dry with lint free cloth if possible.
2) Try and copy the entire CD to the HD, report what happens.
