Unfortunately, that's how some cracks work. You see, if the original executable expects the movie files to be on dvd, it makes it difficult to make a nocd crack. One simple way is to disable the code looking for those files, but it means you won't seen any movies. It is possible to rewrite the code to use the files from the hard disk, but this is far more difficult because you're writing NEW code, not disabling old, and therefore most crackers won't do it. Normally I'd suggest making a hard disk image with Alcohol120% in a situation like this, but that would take up an ungodly amount of extra space. Still, if you got a huge hard disk it might be worth a try.
