[...] All I can tell you is that the blindwrite one still works just fine so I'm going to delete the Alcohol one since the B6T clearly seems to work better...
Even though this is a very old thread, I'm desperate to get this working if anyone can help. For information sake: I have an original BF2142 DVD.

I'm guessing the following programs are being used:
  • Blindwrite 6 - to create the "BF2142.B6T" DVD image from a genuine DVD
  • D-Tools Lite - to get the game to run off of the image

To Quazimojo and Psipherious: Please let us know how you guys got Blindwrite to read the image??? Were you using a certain DVD drive, a certain version of Blindwrite, a certain OS, etc? It's totally awesome you both got this to work in such a simple way! But the rest of us are kind of left in the dark here.

Just as the last post from green7izard, I keep having the error from Blindwrite, "DVD-ROM, incomplete" which grays out the "Read" button. What's up with that? I've even tried using different DVD burners (Sony, Plextor), and even tried using my MacBook in Windows XP and I get the same problem. Please Help!

Even Simpler...

I got it to work. For some reason I was under the impression that I HAD to use Blindwrite to create the image. Not so! Here is what I did:
  • Downloaded and installed the newest version of Daemon Tools Lite found here
  • Created an image of my original BF2142 DVD using Daemon Tools Lite as seen here
  • Mounted the image as seen here
  • Launched the game, and it worked!
For the sake of useful info: I have a Sony Optiarc DVD burner. I hope this helps someone.
