Got a working backup of GTR (Starforce 3)

[Baron]

Hi,
Just a quick thanks for the post on GCW fileforums on how to get a backup of GTR to run - I finally did it after applying the updates as suggested (Only trouble for me is- now Toca Race driver 2 plays decidedly horribly thanks to the unbelievably realistic physics / Handling of GTR).
I hate having to wear out my original CD's , Here's how i made the backup-

Step 1 - Made a working Mini-Image from CIrkutz MIR (Mini - Image Ripper) Using GTR disk one (although there's one to D/L on GCW).

Step 2 - Applied the 149 MB update 1.2.0.0. (German) & 14.7mb Hotfix 1.2.3.0.
Mounted my mini-image in Alcohol 120 ver 1.9.2.
Used SF Nightmare ver112 to disable my IDE drives and secondary (Optical drive)IDE channel.
Entered the serial (requested by game) and reebooted (twice) and then the game ran fine from the Virtual drive.
Hope it work's for you too!!!
