ALL posted "so-called" EA download EXE's are in fact the Razor 1911 releases, which are already availabe @ GCW

just check the first 800 bytes, you'll see the <Razor 1911> tag in it (@ 0x02e0)

It is possible that the ORIGINAL EA EXE will work but this has NOT been posted here

So stop posting useless links and check the content before posting!

ok, what am i doing wrong?

i used ultraiso to make an iso and mdf image of my official bf2142 dvd.

i have tried mounting the iso and the mdf, both with slysoft virtual clonedrive and daemon tools (newest version).

i have tried with and without disabling my real drives, both thru device manager and with microsoft's devcon x86.

i have tried rebooting several times, but nothing works. every time i start the game it asks for the dvd.

grr...

I made a working full image with virtual cd v8.
Is it possible to cut something to get a mini image?
I got these files and don't know how to open it:

P.S.
Someone was interested in the small vc4 File

now it should work.

This is only to be used if you have Bought Original Game. and are only using it for a no-CD/DVD options, to keep the disc safe from damage.

Use your own disc to create the image, since the image would be 3.4gb.

Thanks for the above solway, worked as stated. I didn't even use Daemon Tools just mounted it in Alcohol 120% and the game loaded. Now I can play BF2142 at home and at work :)

Hi guys,
I haven't got this game yet (buying it on the weekend) but I'm curious as to how this method works. From what I can tell Daemon Tools doesn't work with SafeDisc 4.7 (unless I have the wrong version?). How many people have succesfully used this method?

Does not work with Daemon Tools for me, I have the latest version. But it does work when I mount it in Alcohol 120.

Trick is that you need to disable all physical drives so the only drive you have is a virtual one, this seems to be key to getting this thing past Safedisk, not sure why but it seems to be well known if you look around the net. Like this link posted earlier.

I made my own image from my DVD like solwayuk said and all works well. Others have got this to work. Seems the only way forward is a full image, razors image does not work as a full image for some reason.

Why are you using a warez image if you have the original DVD!!??

I wanted to play BF2142 in 2 places but only had one DVD. I did not want to move the DVD back and forth or even have to use a DVD at all.

So I tried razor's image, this did not work but thanks to a couple of helpful posts in this long thread I've made my own working image.

I did not know that making a working image could actually be a fairly painless procedure.

So now I can play in both places using my one serial and my backup image :)

Senks in advance...

So no Daemon tools, just make an image and mount it using Alcohol 120%? Almost sounds too easy :)

Are you sure that with the valium exe, mounting a full working image, there's no way punkbuster ban the cd-key ? I don't want to loose it, it's so expensive :x

Don't forget that you have to disable your physical drives in device manager first.

Don't bother with the Valium exe as it is not the EA Downloader exe, we still do not know if that would work.

Ok, well I can't get solwayuk's method to work. I've got my dvd drive disabled and Daemon Tools running but it still tells me to insert the disc :(
