How Do I Install A Multi Disk Game On A XP VM?

Post by ToolandDie »

Hi,

I am trying to install the PC game Doom 3 on an XP VM and am having trouble when it is time to switch disks. It tells me to load the second disk and when I do, and click "OK"......nothing happens. It will not take my input when I try to click the "OK" button; nor does it continue to install. Does anyone know a work around for this? Thank you in advance!! :D :D

How exactly are you changing the disks?

It might be easier if you copy the contents of the disks inside your WinXP VM, and run the installer from there.
