Ok i think, dont quote me on it, but your copy of Windows needs to be patched/upgraded to the latest service pack!
All i did was the following
*** PATCHED MY WINDOWS TO SP1 (Was unpatched, didnt work) ***
1. Unplug the data cable to your CD+DVD's (Power might work, but dont count on it)
2. Install sfcure01 (use the instructions given)
3. Mount the image with Alcohol 120% (DTOOLS Might work ,not tried it)
4. Install the game with the mounted image
5. Disable NODES (I used Win2k3NodeDisabler, because i run Win2003, SFNightmare might do the job, but i think Win2k3NodeDisabler works with XP also)
6. Start SFCURE01 (!start.bat)
7. Run the game.
SFCURE01 needs to be launched each time you wish to run the game, or each time its been stopped (i.e : pc restarted etc, unless you set it to auto start)
Give that a bash!
P.S : I had wrong cd key error
, patch your Windows to the latest ServicePack!
If you successfully get it running beacuse you've patched your Windows, then please post back to let me know, to rule out the possibility of it being a fluke on my behalf!
