Get it from your CD...but of course, you don't have one.

I do have the cd, if you're trying to catch me using Warez then you are saying the wrong thing.

I of course have the cd regardless of if I did download it or buy it. The CDs come with both, the thing is that I was using the last patch and the NO-CD for that. Now I am going to install this version but the installer will give me an error about the BIA.EXE not being the original one. The problem is I don't think the original EXE is on the cds, I will have a look, if it is there thanks.

Btw, I have the exact same system as you with everything there except different motherboard and CPU (AMD4LIFE)

Ok couple of points. Its good practice to always place the original exe into a folder. (i allways put it in the game dir) and then when using a nocd/fixed exe you can replace it with the original if you want to update the game. Also what you said about having the cd regardless of weather D/L or buying it = Could imply a game thats been D/L (obviously pointing to not being paid for). If you browse the cd (original) you wont be able to find the exe. You will only be able to find a exe for a game once the game is installed. (normally the exe isnt avalible until installation is compleat as the setup unzipps/installs the exe). So there is no reason to ask for a games original exe here @ GCW because having the original CD means you can get hold of it yourself and also no-one will give you a original exe as that would be breaking the rules here @ GCW. In short simply re-install the game and you will have the original exe back in the game dir so the game can be updated then

CD's? This game is on a DVD, at least mine is!

@shawshank: The original EXE is located in the SYSTEM folder on the DVD, BIA.EXE. So it will take like 30 seconds to load the DVD and copy the file across, so what's the problem? Can't get more black and white than that

Did you not even read the 1st thread ? NO-ONE will send you the ORIGINAL exe. (as you should have it on the original DVD). Yes thats why your not updateing because the exe in BIA is a cracked one. Reinstall the game and dont apply the crack,update,then apply 1.3 crack. (thats if you have the original DVD with the original EXE). Do you ?
