Black&White 2 installation problem

Hello there

Having problems installing Black&White 2. My computer (Fujitsu Siemens Amilo A667G, AMD Athlon 64 4000+, 128mb ATI Mobility Radeon X700 PC-I, 1gb RAM) more than meets the minimum specifications. When i try to install the game it gets about half way through and then an error message appears saying:

Installation failed
Black & White 2 has failed to install
Your system has not been modified
Please re-run the installer to try again

Error: Data error (cyclic redundancy check)

Any ideas on how to solve this problem would be great as the game looks amazing and having a laptop with the specs but not being able to play it really stings. Cheers

The error is a CRC error, meaning that the data is corrupt. Look into getting a replacement from the vendor.
