Conquest Frontier Wars No-cd patch not working.
 

I've downloaded the CFW no-cd patch patch and applied it
to my game directory, but once I start the game I get an illegal operation error everytime. If I revert back to my original game.exe it simply asks me for the cd so I know my image is good.
Anyone else having this problem and if so what did you do to
fix it?
I was going to install Daemon Tools and use the safedisc emulator on there but I've heard that Nero and Daemon don't get along very well.

Any help is much appreciated
