Need a bit more info then that.

All I see is:

- Installed GW.
- Didn't require the 2nd CD.
- Program ran fine for (how long?)
- Tried today, computer froze.
- Reinstalls didn't work.

Please post up your computer specs, and what happens when you try and reinstall.

intel pentium 4
3,4 ghz
512 mb ram
nvidia geforce 6610xl

Well the first time it ran for about 3 hours and i closed the game normally by logging out and pressing the X button (close)
Today i tried to start it but then it connected to arenanet and then to download and after that my computer didnt even want to open my task manager! now i tried to install it on a different computer and there he installed the game normally and also asked for the 2 CD. but i want to have it working on this computer though :S

infect the problem is that he doesnt install anything from the cd but downloads everything

Ok, try to uninstall the program, go into your drive where you installed it to, delete the folder there, then go to Start -> Run. Type in regedit and press Ctrl F. Type in Guild and do a search.

Whenever something Guild Wars related comes up, deleted only the registrey files, not the folder they are in. (You might delete something important that way.) Use your best judgement when it comes to deleting files while using regedit, deleting the wrong one could cause computer problems.

This is the best way to clean sweep your computer of any GW files. Try to reinstall the game after your done deleting, and see how it installs this time around. If it doesn't ask for CD two, try putting it in anyway just to see what kind of message it gives you.
