hahaha ok right after I posted that I tried again and it worked. So heres a quick run down of what I did to get this damn game to finally work.

- Open Virtual CD 8
- Create virtual cd (direct it to the image that you have)
- It will go through a list of shit that it has to do, once its done open the folder in which you let create, (mine was My Documents > Virtual CD's > Anno 1701
- Download the updated image from GCW
- Extract your GCW file into the folder where the virtual cd creates
- Un mount every virtual drive u have and remove them, so you should just be left with you REAL DISK DRIVES dont leave ANY virtual drives going.
- Through virtual cd, now mount the image you downloaded from GCW (in the folder that VCD created as previously stated mine was in my documents.) When you mount it MOUNT IT TO YOUR REAL CDROM/DVDROM DRIVE do NOT use a virtual drive.
- Now simply run the disk from my computer, press start on the autorun and PLAY!


NOTES: If at first you dont succeed, try, try again.
- Rebooting helped, if its locked up on initilizate or whatever reboot and try again.
