First off I would just like to point out that running from the CD or HDD should be irrelevant, as the Daemon Tools sets up a complete drive object, with it's own drive letter. With regard to that error message question. I don't get any message at all, the game simply will not run. When I click on the game icon, I get a burst of disk activity, then nothing. This only happens after installation of the 1.2 patch. So... Version 1.0 -> CD and Virtual image will run the game. Version 1.2 -> CD will run the game, virtual image will not. At this stage, I've resigned myself to the fact that I'm going to have to run from CD. So I'm deleting the virtual image, and going back to, ** sigh **, CD swapping. Happy NOW!! :hmmm:

Well this explains why I can't run the game with Daemon-Tools. Now, before you start calling me a pirate... Arrrr... I do have an original game which I have purchased. However as the disks came in these crappy paper sleeves, I thought it prudent to create a viral copy of the disks for my own private use. Thus I can leave the CD's in the paper sleeves without fear of damaging either the CD's or sleeves, throught wear and tear. Strange thing though is that before the 1.2 version patch I could run the game without any problems. When I installed patch v1.2, the game no longer runs for my virtual image. I think this stinks!! I paid for the game, so I should be able to use the game as I see convenient. Only I have this CD's, only I use the virtual image, so what's wrong with that!!
