I have heard that these problems occur only during attempted multi-player connection, as the no-cd was only intended for single player games. It's hard to be more precise without knowing what windows version your running.

It could be a driver problem, or your crack may have fecked things up within the prog itself.

At the end of the day, any cracks/patches are "dirty". They mess with a progs code so they're not always perfect. On-line CRC (cyclical redundancy check - tests integrity of file to ensure no tampering) checks are becoming common, so if you want to play without cd, use Daemon Tools.


And finally, a "video driver upgrade" is exactly that. An updated set of drivers (programs that enable hadrware from different manufacturers to communicate with windows and other software) may be available for your video card which may resolve this kind of problem you're having.
