Battlefield 1942 Complete Collection missing disks?

I ordered Battlefield 1942 - The Complete Collection a little while ago, and it just recently came in the mail. I ended up with a bit of trouble with Road to Rome since the back of the manual was ripped, but I just did a temporary fix. Now, I went to install Battlefield Vietnam which came with the pack, and it's a bit strange since I used disk 5 to install it, then it asked for disk 2, and I put in disk 6 because of a hunch. After that, it asks for disk 3. Now here's my issue: I don't have a disk 7! My set only has 6 disks and it was asking for another one. I just decided then to just put all the disks in and see if any of them would work. Unfortunately, that didn't work. None of the disks I have will let me finish installing BF Vietnam. I really want to play it too, my friend says it's incredibly fun. How would I fix this issue of a "missing disk?"

    Well, I was able to get BF1942 as a digital copy to conpensate for the expansion pack not working. I just now got BF4 to conpensate for BF: Vietnam not working! I got BF1942 at least, so I'm happy now

  • Hey,

    If I were you, I would contact the retailer because of the missing disk (s). I don't think EA can help with it because CDs isn't their "way" now. However, you could try contact an advisor for a digital copy of the BF Vietnam.

    I looked up an image of the disks to have an idea of how many disks it comes and for my surprise it showed 8 disks! (In which matches the set I have- I don't have the complete collection but I have both games games and both games came with 4 disks).

    Not sure if this helps, but if you are going to contact the retailer or an advisor, I wish you good luck 🙂

    P.S. if you wish to have a digital copy of the BF 1942 you can redeem the serial code in origin ( It worked for me at least)

    Regards,

    Well, there isn't any space for more disks. So I'm a bit confused. I got this game "new" from Amazon. Straight from EA. I just found that the disk doesn't work at all... I double click the icon and wait about 2 seconds, then Windows asks if the program worked properly. I worked through the troubleshooter and set compatibility settings. Didn't fix it. So I guess my only option would be digital copy.

    Good thing I didn't delete those pictures :P

    If you are having issues with BF 1942 that doesnt start I suggest to you to go to this website:

    http://answers.ea.com/t5/Battlefield-1942/my-game-keeps-saying-please-login-with-administrator-privileges/m-p/4999540#U4999540

    I used the same patch and it worked (for BF 1942 again)

    P.S. be aware that the digital copy of BF 1942 DOES NOT include the DLCs (unhappily)

    For BF Vietnam, you are gonna probably need to ask for a refund, or ask for another one, but if you have the time, you could try uninstall it and re-install it again (maybe you mixed the order up - I don't know)

    Hope it helps,

    I'm closing this thread to stop it being necroed.

    If you have any issues with Battlefield please make a new topic about the issues you are having and what kind of steps you have tried to solve it.
