Ok, so we got the new Football Manager today.

I go to install in, put the disk in, and normally something comes up to Install...it didnt.

So went to My Computer, but there is no D Drive showing up


Have asked Brent and Linux, who are normally decent with computers don't know what to do either

Anyone help plzzzzzzz???

What operating system?

If it's XP, have a gander at this:  http://news.softpedia.com/news/Disk-management-under-Windows-XP-31331.shtml

Kick BH in the nuts, may not help but you will feel a lot better imo.


No idea about fixing laptops i'm afraid, normally put my fist through them well before they get old enough to go wrong.

You might be able to make an image of the disc on someone else's computer and then use something like daemon tools to emulate the drive.
