Setup (what I got):

Windows XP Pro x64, with all current updates
nForce4 motherboard
1x SATA HDD
1x IDE DVD-Burner (connected to primary IDE controller)

Steps (what I did):

1. Mount DVD Image with Daemon Tools 4 (x64-edition)
2. Install Game
3. In Device Manager: Disable "Primary IDE Channel" and "Standard Dual Channel PCI IDE Controller", as well 2x Card Readers (just in case, even though they're connected via USB). Bascially, I disabled everything IDE, and everything storage related with the exception of the SATA controller and hard drive. Probably overkill, but at least it worked.
4. Play

Notes:

- For whatever reason, disabling the primary IDE controller in BIOS didn't work. Even though Windows didn't find the DVD-burner at all, the protection system still complained.
- Doesn't matter what Emulation options you disable or enable in DT4. The game with load fine regardless.
- No other tools used. Not that there are a whole lot, beyond DT4, for x64.
- This worked for me. It might not work for you.
