I have tried many times with mini image but still don't work.
My game is pirate copy!!!
How to make to bwi and do what maxtrox say

but if you have no cd patch is better

pirate copy.. bad idea.. read the rules next time

Hey after 2 days trying to get it working i finally done it and this is how.

1 get anti blaxx and the patch for it.find the folder where anti blaxx is install and extract the patch to it and replace it.
2 you ll need dameon tools aswell
3 install them both
4 get the image for dow wa
5 open anti blaxx go to settings where it says dameon tools click on it and find the exe for dameon tools
6 then click first game click protection and i choose securerom 7
7 then go to game option and find the w40kwa.exe and select it
8 click mount image and then choose use daemon tools
9 then put the image in where it says image.

Now goto daemon tools and mount the dow wa image there aswell turn off all emulation options. The game should start click play and you should be able to play it. let me know if it works for you or if ya have any questions.

Frustration!
 

ok guyz im really frustrated by this game.... but i need to start it!

i have done all the above.....but...
when i run the game with deamon tools & blaxxx i get the following msg:
"A required security module can not be activated. This program can not be executed."

when i run the game without anti-blaxxx, the mouse pointers turns to a little cd loading and i get the following msg:
"Original disc could not be found or authenticated."

do u have any ideas?

i did happen to foget one step sorry about that after you have every thing all set exit deamon tools and then disable it from start up with msconfig (at your own risk what else u play with in there) restart your computer and use the winter assault exe in the game dir. srry about that hopefully this will resolve some problems

Im thiiiiiissss close to smahing my pc!!!
 

Been trying for days to get the game to play witout a cd,
and now i've finally managed to start it up without using one.

BUT...there's allways a BUT now aint it,lol...

The game starts up and starts to configure itself.
After the a little while it asks me for cd2, and when i start up cd2,
the annoying little Disk1Check activates itself again.

And no matter how much i try i just cant seem to get it
to stop activating itself again when i insert cd2.

Anyone got any pointers?
Could it be that cd2 is a bin file? (i couldnt create it like anything else
for some weird reason...)

Thx in advance ;)

CD2 is a BIN file? What does that mean; you used CDRWin to create a copy of your original CD2 or what?

How to get dawn of war: winter assault to work without the cd

1 download anti-blaxx (http://www.angelfire.com/sc3/compsite/antiblaxx.zip) [copy and paste this url (angelfire doesnt allow offsite linking)] then install it. find the folder where anti blaxx is install and extract the patched exe (ccd-anti.rar) to it and replace it.
2 download daemon tools (its in the same zip as antiblaxx)
3 install daemon tools.
4 get the image for dow wa (mir-wh40kwa.BWT)
5 open anti blaxx go to settings where it says dameon tools click on it and find the exe for dameon tools
6 then click first game click protection and choose securerom 7
7 then go to game option and find the w40kwa.exe and select it
8 LEAVE the mount image and button ALONE!!! DO NOT DO THIS or it will mess up daemon!
9 open daemon tools and mount the mir-wh40kwa.BWT file
10 run the game from the start menu or the w40kwa.exe
enjoy!

Where did you get the .BWT file?

From Greece
 

GUYS AFTER 3 DAYS OF TRING TO RUN WINTER ASSAULT AND USING ALL IDEAS I FOUND THE SOLUTION!!!!!!
YOU HANE TO DOWNLOAD THE IMAGE FROM GAME COPY WORLD WITH 24.5MB!!!!USE THE NEW VERSION OFF ALCOHOL 120% 1.9.5.
INSTAL THE GAME WITH IT AND MOUND THE IMAGE THATS END IN .BWT :D :D :D
AND THE GAME WORKS!!!!!!!
IT WILL PASS THE PROTECTION AND THE NO SAY AGAIN PUT THE AUTHENTIC CD :cool: :cool: :cool:
THATS ALL !!!!! ENJOY THE GAME

woahhhh nice caps :P


Best speak in Lower case, many see CAPS as offensive and shouting :)

do you want to play the game or you want to share your ideas about CAPS :p :p :p

Was curious if the guy had a mini-image or the full image.

Im guessing you have both correct?

Pretorian, I just tried that in Alcohol 120% and it didn't work.

I get the same 'cd not found or authonticated' message. :mad: Are there any options that should be enabled?

EDIT: And I'm not even going to bother with antiblaxx, from what I've heard it royally screws over your cd drives... :eek:
