If you have it installed then mount your MDF in Daemon to play!
Read the FAQ to find out how to mount images.

Well I am new at all this, so bare with me. I bought TRD3 and installed it, then began research on how I could play it without having to put the DVD in my drive all the time. Then I downloaded DT, VD Pro and AL120% to see how they would work. I made an image with both VD and AL120% and still have the orginal install of TRD3

If I'm understanding your right, I should just be able to mount the original mdf and play using DT is that correct?

Many thanks for the help...

This, normally, wouldnt work
As mentioned multiple times in here, you have to disable your internal, phyiscally available IDE drives by unplugging the power cable.
Otherwise you need a huge amount of luck to achieve this

Hmm, I thought I had read that using VD Pro and selecting diable IDE drives then mounting an image would work, not true?

My confusion is whether I need to completly uninstall my original install and then reinstall using an image file, then mount using DT.

Did anybody test the Race Driver 3 FIXED MDS IMAGE FILE (DPM)?

Yes, I did, but have since uninstalled everything and am back running with the DVD in the drive. I felt it really screwed up my system. It did work and here's what I did.

First dowloaded a trial of Alchohol 120% and made an image of the gamed. Next downloaded Daemon Tools and tried to mount the .mdf file, that did not work, so I downloaded a trial of VD Pro and made another image with it. Then if you go into VD PRO and use it's "diaable" cd-rom function, you can then mount the .mdf image and it will work. With Daemon Tools, there is a constant advertising bar that is always at the bottom of the screen, that I did not like, as it was constantly loading stuff all the time.

I'd be interested in hearing feedback from anyones experiences with sucess..

Yes i did and found it to be absolutely useless as was the mdf file that came with the dload..
Seems unless you have a special system setup the same way as the guy who orginally made the image, you wont have much luck getting it to work..im still waiting for a ride..

Well you should at least be able to use the original disc to play? For now anyway, until a proper NoCD/DVD method is found.
