BF2-Unable to mount image after update

[DABhand]

Dont want to sound so wary.

But if you dont know how to mount an image, why did you buy alcohol.

You just mount with either Alcohol or Daemon Tools. But your drive must be able to read RMPS. Or it wont do well making a working image, and do it at slow speed.

If that fails, you should have 7x media for your 7x licenses

Of course I know how to use the tools. Try just answering the question if you know the answer.

Need I explicitly say that I used Alcohol 120% (expert install) to rip the image using SafeDisk 2/3 at 8x reading speed to the local drive, then tried to mount it using Daemon Tools with SafeDisk enabled, and it failed?

With that said, does anyone know why it is not working properly? And if anyone has successfully created the (NOCD) image and made it work after the BF2 patch was installed, please elaborate how this was accomplished.

Note, I have no intention of using my original CDs in the drive - anyone who suggests this is the right thing to do is IMHO not a real gamer. It's too much hassle and the disc will eventually become damaged from inserting and removing it.
