I stupidly bought a used copy of SCGT from Interactcd.com ---- after I ordered I realized how dumb, they had new at $19.95 and my used at $15 - so to save $5 I took a gamble. Did not pay off - - got the Cd in ail today and it had some major scratches and was dirty to boot - - - It took 3 hours to load with one STOP in middle informing my it could not read that area, BUT got it to continue on and was hopeful it would then play and I could throw away the scratched CD. NO such luck === looked good until got to PLAY screen - have to click on lit up OK to start a game BUT "no clicky" it will not run. But how dumb of me to buy used from dealer that buys used unseen from the public tand then resells them to dummies like me - - - I ususally trade in all my CD's at *** Exchange and they would not have even taken this SCGT CD in for trade. I have E Mailed Interact - waiting to hear if they will take it back and "LET" me add $5 and get new copy = = = waht a deal will be out $6.40 just for shipping 2 X's and I'll bet you that they will want me to pay for shipping back that would be $960 - -----------what a deal for a dummy

You have to start a career before you can play the game. Once you have a career entered the "OK" button will work. If the CD copied all the files the game should then work. Also, I'm not sure but I don't think you can play the game without the CD. Paul BUT > got it to continue on and was hopeful it would then play and I could throw > away the scratched CD.

I contacted Dave at InteractCD and he said their games have 100% Guarantee and they will pay shipping back for NEW SCGT - - - so this is GOOD news, will return the used junker and go NEW like I should have to begin with.
