win xp home ed don't support no cd cracks?

[big mike]

I tried to use a no cd crack for madden02 and it does'nt seem to work. Does xp prevent this? or am i doing something wrong. anyone know of a way around this.
thanks for the replies.

I have the pro edition of XP and Madden 02 works fine for me with the no-cd crack, one game I could not get to work with the no-cd crack was NBA 2001.

The problem with windows xp home and pro and no-cd cracks is that windows xp will only run programs that are win32 compliant. anything that isnt, wont run. it took me forever to find a version of the d2 LOD cracks that was ok.
