BF2142 working backup/image etc..

[SirGrimNZ]

I'm very sorry if my exact question might have being asked before,but I am in urgent need for a solution.

I purchased a copy of 2124 6 months ago..3 months ago my disk snapped in half(dont ask),however I do have a backup of the disc,my only problem is I cant get the game to play.

Originally to get the game to play without the disc,I used a 1.25 no dvd which worked awsome until 1.4 came out,and the 1.4 no dvd does not work what so ever.Everytime I load a map and press start the game quits to desktop.

What I'd like to know,is if anyone can link me to a 1.4 no dvd that actually works(the one that I have just crashes the game in sp and mp)?

If not,I've heard about virtual drives.Then could anyone link me to a guide that YOU HAVE USED AND KNOW WORKS so that I may play the game.

Thanks alot.
