Same mode? I'm pretty sure they said Safe Mode.
Nope, Same Mode...
Yeah, it is safe mode, I guess I don't care enough about my posts to proof read them before I hit Submit.
To see if your disk is damaged:
Put in your NBA Live 07 disk.
Exit out of any installation windows (aka do not try and install)
Open your My Computer Folder
Right click on the NBA Live 07 logo and select Open
Select all of the files and hit Copy
Go to your Program Files folder and create a new folder
Paste all of the documents in that folder
If all of the files are pasted into this new folder without an error, this means your disk is fine. Install the game with Windows in Safe Mode.
If there is an error that comes up when you the files, it means your disk is damaged. This means you will need to take it back to the store and trade it for a new one. If for some reason the store won't trade you, then send it in to EA Sports to get it replaced.
Before you do all of this remember to make sure that there are no scratches, smudges or dust on the disk.
Anyways, if it is possible, it might be better if you just call EA Sports up and talk to them since they have staff that are payed to answer questions like these.
