Installing from CD

I'm trying to install the game from a CD (I don't have steam, and steam install doesn't work for me anyway). It installed alright until about halfway, at which point it stopped. I thought that I might need to change discs, and so I did, but the installation did not continue. Any suggestions? Could I force completion of installation and then insert the 2nd CD and have Crossover Games install it separately? Thanks

Unfortuantely I've not been able to get this working from the CD.

At first it wouldn't even run the installer, but then I installed Steam and the installer worked, but when I try and launch the game I get either an error saying to stop the debugger first (Win98) or just the splash screen.

Hi,
As it has been said earlier in this forum, currently only the Steam version works. The CD version has some CD based copy protection which doesn't work in CrossOver. Luckily the Steam version doesn't have it, but unfortunately you can't register your CD key in Steam, and Steam doesn't have the BTS expansion.
