Having picked up:

LotR: Battle for Middle-Earth [ENGLISH] No-CD/No-DVD/Fixed Image
and Daemon Tools

and mounted said image into the virtual drive, I find that the contents of the drive are deemed corrupt and are unreadable (the volume label is displayed correctly though as LOTRBFME). Is this what I should expect?

If so the method doesn't work.

The game (using the original game.dat patched to 1.02) still reports that I have CD/DVD emulation software install and won't play ball.

I have tried mounting another (old) CD image and this gives what I expect - an explorable drive.

Any thoughts would be much appreciated.
