Meh, just wanted to confirm the crack is still asking for a dvd...
I applied the patch but didnt notice I still had the DVD inside, so it worked at first...
The next day, I started it without any DVD inside the drive and it kept asking me where I got my copy from, not allowing me to get past that dialog.
The game used to ask for the DVD all the time even with a disk inside, but at least it continued behaving as normal, without a DVD it just doesnt work at all.
So either it is a Backup-CD (or whatever the exact terminology is) or plainly a bad crack...
