    Well, here's how I do it on Windows.

    Go to %appdata%\.minecraft\bin and open up minecraft.jar using WinRAR or 7-Zip (Right-click on it, then select 7-Zip-->Open Archive)
    Delete META-INF folder.
    Go to %appdata%\.minecraft\mods and delete/move everything you have in there. Same thing with \coremods.
    Download Forge from http://files.minecraftforge.net.
    Unzip the Forge.zip you get.
    With the new unzipped Forge folder on the left-side of your screen, and the opened minecraft.jar on the right-side, drag-n-drop everything inside the forge folder into the minecraft.jar.
    Close both, and start Minecraft.
    Close Minecraft, and go to %appdata%\.minecraft and see if there's a file named ForgeModLoader-client-0.log. If there is, that means Forge is working in some way, shape, or form.

    Read it. It'll tell you the error.

    Ok, since I don't know what Hadaniel's exact error is, I'm going to walk you through it ;)

    1. Only install Forge (assume you know how to do that): http://files.minecraftforge.net
    2. Start Minecraft, and verify that Forge works.
    2. Download IC2 1.112.xxx, and place it in the mods folder unchanged (delete all other mods first, to verify that other mods aren't causing the problems).
    4. Start Minecraft. If IC2 doesn't display, look at ForgeModLoader-Client-0.log inside .minecraft for any suspicious stuff. See if Forge even recognizes IC2.
    5. If you suspect an error, post it in Support.
