MOHAA/spearhead

[scrocker]

My friend bought Spearhead and couldn't get it to install. Bombed before it asked for serial number with an error about memory then the registration number was invalid and BOOM, done. When the error came up it asked if I wanted to debug as he has Visual C++ installed so I hit Cancel and it went to debug mode. It then told me that NVIEW.DLL had caused and error so I told it to continue past the error and it installed the game without ever asking for the the serial number and now it works fine even with the no cd patch. He recently uninstalled the Detonator Driver for his Geforce 4 MX and has strange issues ever since.

On another note, I tried to make a 1:1 copy with my Spearhead using ClonyXXL and CloneCD 4 and it doesn't work. The image I made works fine with Daemon tools when I load the emulator and mount the imge on my drive, but the physical copy is a no go. Should I assume that my writer can read the protection but not write it? Damn little Samsung, I should have bouth a Philips.
