    OK First off let's see if that disc 2 is faulty. With disc 2 in the CD drive open My Computer and then look for the CD drive with the disc 2.

    Right click that drive and choose "Explore"

    If you cannot open all the folders on the disc and see a list of the contents then it's fair to assume the disc has some damage (or the drive is faulty ... though it reads other discs ok so we'll not jumpt to conclusions)

    If you suspect the disc is at fault ... examine it carefully for dirt/scratches. With great care try to clean off any dirty marks. Light scratches can be removed with toothpaste: (honest! see: Google repair scratched cd)

    If you can read all the contents of the disc then perhaps you might have to install the game from a copy of the CD, in which case you will need to make copies of both discs and start over with the installation. See here for a step by step <how to>
