When I bought the game, I was told that they had cases of errors on disk 2;
the guy checked each game and gave me one which is OK. When I played it,
I had the "Read error" thing happening once, by entering Tex' office. So it
seems that it is a rather wide-spread problem. Cleaning won't help. The
only chance you have is trying to reload from there (or a bit earlier) again
and again, but no guarantee.
