ok guys been working on figuring this out all night and i hope this helps yall i went through and read through different threads until i was able to understand how to do this, so dont flame me pls saying someone else said this. im just making it easier for those needing help. some of this may or may not be redundant and unescessary i just wanna help yall get going.
first thing i did uninstalled the game
then i mounted the image file via daemon tools.
then i reinstalled the game via that image.
then i disabled daemon tools virtual drive.
then i clicked on the desktop shortcut and went to properties went to compatability mode changed to win2000 compatability mode(i am using windows xp)
then i mounted the game via alcohol 120%
then i used sr7stop which you can find a link to on gamecopyworld.com to hide the virtual drive.
then i ran the desktop shortcut.
BINGO finally able to play fear. id love to see a response if this works for you just to make sure i didnt forget any steps hope yall enjoy
