Have you downloaded the NoCD/Fixed 'exe' from GCW and replaced the original with it?
Rename or put the original 'exe' in a safe place, saves having to reinstall should any future updates checking originality of the 'exe'.

This one from GCW is for the 1.12 update.

Yup, tried that. I've made a copy of the original game, so I'll go with that. The patches from GCW seem to be working fine on the other games I've installed so maybe the H&D one is a bit dodgy.
