If you're saying that you've reverted back to the original install and you're having troubles still; I have seen and heard a lot about certain cdrom drives not working with certain legitimate SafeDisc protected games. I have personally had this problem with store bought games like System Shock 2 on my Yamaha 4260 cdrom drive. The Yamaha drives seem to be very common at having this problem. There isn't an easy fix and Yamaha can't/won't help. The only thing that I can do is use the most current Daemon Tools as stated previously (Even for games that have been bought at the store.) Ironic isn't it?
