Your method has been mentioned many times before.

I understand that, but I have only ever had to do what you speak of twice that I no of & as long as you have the original executable you have nothing to loose after all how long does it usally take before a Patch is out anyway.

Also in most cases I can still put in an Update Patch when the No Cd Crack is still in the Game Dir...
