    Hey, have any of you had this issue when installing F.E.A.R. and, if so, how did you get around it? Going through the installshield wizard after it finishes disk1 it prompts me to put in disk2. After I do, it tries to find data3.cab but it cannot. I explored the disks and could not find data3.cab on any of them. What do I do?? This just seems ludicrous in a $40 game. Not to mention, the very reason I tried to reinstalled was because the patch I downloaded for FEAR, hosed my game. Please help...Thanks.
