Question Kinda Need Some Help

Hey All.

I recently bought myself a good old favorite game of mine "Dungeon Keeper 2"

After It finished loading onto my computer a message came up telling me to "Insert the original disk" funny thing is, it is the original disk.

Does anyone know how to fix this problem?

Someone told me there is a web site that i can goto to fix the problem but they didnt know the name.

Any help would be great.

Thanks.

Sometimes the CD protection just screws up. It especially happens when companies re-release games (especially EAs crap) with the same copy protection structure in the exe, but using a slightly different version, or structure of the protection on the CDs themselves. The 1.70 patch could fix the problem though.

If you decide to use the crack you'll have to search the net for the 1.70 US cracked exe as neither GCW, MegaGames, or Gamefix has that version (though MegaGames has the 1.70 UK version, so you could try it).

You might have better luck using unSafedisc/unSafedisc V2, or Safedisc 2 Cleaner (which you can get at http://go.to/gamefix) depending on what version of Safedisc EA used THIS time. Hope that helps.

Edit: If I remember correctly they used Safedisc 1.11.000, so unSafedisc 1.5.5 should do the trick, which you can grab here: http://sta.c64.org/winprg/unsfd155.zip Hopefully the link won't get blocked as GCW/Gamefixs link is broken to the app.

Hi Tipstaff,

I'm very happy that you found useful stuff on my site, http://sta.c64.org ! The server is pretty stable so the files are supposed to stay there for a long time...

I have the message

This is the exact message that comes up:

"Please insert the Key CD Rom, select OK & restart application"

Yet to try the unsafe disk thing.
