Still not working here, not even the newly submitted images, must be because one of my installs was from dvd vs. cd?

It works for me sometimes when i try to start with CureRom. But it works very seldom :(

Unghhhh - I am getting frustrated !!
 
I've tried everything to repeat the sucess I had lastnight. I was playing it ok and then quit the game, thinking "hey, it finally worked so I'm all good".

BAH...This morning, nothing works ! sd4hide, CureRom, the images recently posted with just Daemon Tools..Nada...Zip

So it seems to me that CureRom (which is what "accidently worked" lastnight) is the key but there is a randomness to this whole process that I don't like. I mean do I hafta wait till it's dark and the planets are properly aligned again before I can play using my image ? Or is this just a ploy by EA for me to wear out the media and then be forced to buy a replacement ?

Any help would be appreciated.

Does our method work ?

DCsharkz 04-03-2006 13:17

HAHA! it worked, i used daemon 4.03 to mount it used the safe disc4 hide thing and clicked the game and it booted right on up.

no, i sent you a private message please check it..

Did you install your open for busines from cd roms, or was it a dvd?

None of any of the methods anyone has listed has worked for me, i've tried them all...

i cant even use the newly uploaded images to gamecopy world, they all end up with the game saying i need the cd rom..

same here..this works for u and me so far.

xFoXXy 04-03-2006 17:27

Ok, those people that used Daemon tools and sd4_hide, care to tell wad emulation options had been enabled in Daemon Tools and which image ? Mini or Full ? cause, it only worked for me when i use CureRom + FULL image.

BeetleJuice 04-03-2006 17:42

i used both images uploaded to gamecopyworld, mini/full no idea? all emulations are on, and options checked are automount, autostart, and tray icon..

I've read other posts/forums where u could delete registry keys for scsi and other posts where u could disable cdr drives and it would work and those options also have failed..
