I am new to forums and I have looked everywhere how to post a message - yes read all the FAQ and rules etc so hope what I am doing is okay
I HAVE bought these two games last weekend but I don't play games without copying them first because I like to be able to sell the games when finished with them.
I installed Quake 4 (PC roms)but at the end of installation it asks for Disk 1 again but nothing happend when I put in Disk 1. I have to abort the installation. Yes I know I could put in the original disk but I haven't come across this problem before when I make my backup copies.
F.E.A.R (again PC roms) installs without any problems and I apply the patch but then the screen goes black and hangs up. I guess this would be a video problem would it?
As a lot more games are coming out on DVD and I don't have one yet is it possible for me to say buy a game - get someone who has a DVD drive to copy it to their hard drive and then make CD roms for me to play the game. Hope that is not an illegal question - I would be buying the game in the first place.
Appreciate any help you can give me especially with Quake 4
