IO had a friend have the exact same thing happen to him, so he borrows my cd's and guess what.. Disk 4 had an error installing for him..

WTF?, My disks are clean, he ended up BUYing a new retail box and a laptop and it loaded fine..

Sorry I cant help you.

Did you see if the Repair.exe utility was installed before you got to disc 4? You can try running that and it will patch/install whatever you are missing.

Also, there was a way you could extract the WoW 1.0 executable from the MPQ's from an already installed version and run that, then run the Repair too. I can't remember the extact details, but that's how I reinstalled last time when I couldn't find my disks.

The last time I had to reinstall WOW, it took me like 14 hours. :shock:

I installed the game on my laptop recently and had the same issue on disc 4. I ended up sharing a cd-rom from one of my other puter's over the network and used that to install the final disc.

Just don't install WoW :)!

I had the same problem when I played WoW, there was a thread in the tech forums at the WoW website... I`m not sure if it's still there or not. I`ll look and, if I find it, post it here for you.

I had no issues when I reinstalled WoW:TBC about six weeks ago. I do remember seeing something about disc 4 causing issues for people around the time that the expansion was released. I never caught if it was the base or expansion disc 4 that was addressed though.
