@frisk
Hmmm, I fail to see how Dabhand was sarcastic? Whereas your 'THANKS A LOT' comment was definately being sarcastic! The advice/help you were given was fair advice? It wasnt sarcasm?
Re-install which ever program created the virtual drive, then you should be able to remove it, then if you want you can uninstall the program again if you dont really want it.

Allready done, but it doesn't work. The virtual drive name is "Generic..." so I think it's the demon-tools one.

And you were right finally, last DABhand answer wasn't sarcastic, it was arrogant and insulting.

generic can also be alcohol, not surprising cos it and daemon tools are close, and you say when mounted in alcohol you got the 'wrong disk inserted' message and not the emulation detected msg?, i'd also suggest that you and dabhand stop the pissing contest as its really achieving nothing for either of you

No, alcohol virtual drive default name is AXV CD/DVD-ROM.
Anyway, I finally managed to remove it.
And yes, the error message is "wrong disc inserted", not "emulation detected".
(I'm using the french DVD version of GTA SA).

You reap what you sow.

I offered advice you took the anti-blaxx option, I didnt bend your arm backwards to install it.

Besides I have not had any problems installing and uninstalling anti-blaxx.

Therefore it must be something else.

You were sarcastic with your THANKS A LOT, which made me respond the way I did.

I even went as far as offered more advice, if you think thats insulting then more fool you.

I've been reading through all the posts in this thread but couldn't find an answere to my question. If there is one it would be very kind of you to tell me where to look. thx.
I got the german version of Gta SA and I am using the Hoodlum crack for ALL.
It's been working completely fine for a week. (No problems at all) yesterday eve I played (mission where u gotta save sweet under the brigde and where u are then taken by Tenpenny and u gotta destroy some evidence and take photos of it. First time u can get out of Los Santos I think). I went to grove street and saved, quit the game n watched some dvd on my pc. Today I wanted to start the game as I do always and it simply doesn't start. It seems as if it's trying to (that little sandclock of Windows appears for a short time) but doesn't do nething more. I've been trying all day to fix it without any results. (reboot, reinstalling the crack, so on n so on) might this "Crash fix patch" additional to the crack work?
I got no Idea, thx if u can help me

I have a US version of GTA SA, used hoodlum crack and everything works great. I decided to install one of those adapter on my pc usb to use the ps2 controller. Well the game wouldn't start after that, I couldn't for the life of me figure out why, well after much hair pullings I just disconnect the usb ps2 controller and it started again....the problem can be reproduce everytime. Hope this info might help other peoples out.

I've read the board rules ( look at the 7th ) : No flaming or insulting other board members. I don't see "forbidden to be sarcastic" . Now when you say that "I'm too dumb" I think it's insulting, isn't it ? And I don't know what "fool" means exactly ( maybe because I'm too dumb ) but it sounds insulting too... I've read a lot of posts from you on this board, and what I saw is that you like when people get banned for breaking a rule so why don't you report this ?

And before I get banned , I think there's a localization issue with the mini-image : it works with US version of GTA SA, not with the FRENCH one... as said before, I get a "wrong disc inserted" message, not an "emulation detected" message.

frisk, back down, it looks like you are going out of your way to cause a fight, and if you want banned it probably will happen, its either that or a language barrier, but you are achieving nothing with your bitching

I wouldnt have said that if not for your derogatory comment in the post before it.

As I said you reap what you sow.

@tbaher
There are 3 mini images available at GCW, or did you mean to say 'which' mini image?
