have you tried downloading it? Try not using the disc to install it.....it will take longer, but it should work

I thought it was just my disc but it seems other people have this issue. The only other way to get it as download it like vrean said. Have fun.

My disk 1 was faulty couldn't even image copy is as it came up with a bad code,had to download it after 22 1/2 hours it worked fine so then I used the masseffectConfig to import my ME charater to ME2 and as most posts have said that just caused the game to not even work it syncs. thats all..so not going to do another 22 1/2 hour download so got a replacement coming today lets hope it works otherwise I am going to get annoyed considering the config issue has been ongoing for over 3 years lol.
On a side note all Disk 1 of ME & ME3 came up with disk reading errors which Is unacceptable manged to get ME to install after several attempts but ME3 I had to use Daemon Tools Image burner to copy the image of the disks then install that way which works(got the information about that from the old BW forums.
The Legacy Edition is a great package just shame the QA didn't sort the Config out in ME2 and catch the fauly batch of DVD's...

Amazon are getting annoyed ....

Took 3 attempts to get a working Disk 2 ,in a sense it's a shame really as the option's for the 3rd try were :-
1. get another sent in the post and if doesn't work get a refund
2. Amazon were willing to pull the whole lot out of circulation and stop selling them till the issues is fixed ,but if they did that all I would of got is a refund.
Wonder if it would of made EA/BW sit up if a major seller stopped selling there faulty Trilogy Package
