Yes, I agree with Zerlina. It sounds like a dodgy disc to me too. You could try cleaning it or just get a new one. My Civilization 2 disc did that a while ago. I carefully cleaned it under plain running water with a very soft cloth, then wiped it, again very carefully, with a dry very soft cloth. Its run fine ever since. May be worth trying because if the disc is stuffed, it certainly can't make it any worse
