Oh I forgot. FYI about Bioshock. About 4 5 months back my girl friend's son enrolled in a culinary school in Brooklyn/NYC and an absolute requirement for his enrollment was "ALL STUDENTS MUST HAVE A LAPTOP" so we went to Best Buy and got the ASUS GV50T for him (LOL I picked it out HaHa He wanted a Mac!) My XP rig had the 9XX Pentium 4 you know 2 processor cores but 1 was Virtual and a AGP buss. I got a ATI 1950XT because it was "the" most powerful AGP card left at that time and it easily outperformed the Nvidia 6800 Ultra. (I had both) So before I upgraded to my current machine I wanted to see how things ran on his laptop wich was hailed as a Gamer's rig. And along with GCW's files I got Bioshock running on that from the same .iso image that will not work now. BUT...I did burn that one onto a dual layer DVD to load it into the lap. And...it setup after 2 installs and ran great. So that was what was on my mind when I hit these forums.

Are there different bioshock versions out there? The bioshock setup IS copy-protected, so the setup should have failed installing it from an .iso/burned disc from .iso without patching something or using parallel mounted mini image. Might be some kind of an homebrewed installer here?

Ya Must be the Image.
The retail Disc set right up. Actually I thought it would so i feel like I sort of wasted time posting, I know you guys love this but some people REALLY need more basic help than I did. Anyway If anyone would know or gut feel out why a .iso image that installed ok in the past suddenly won't run at all...I'd inspect all theories to see where the problem arose from. It was one of those things that had no obvious reason and I always like to try to know fo'da future. The image was on a "my Book" with at least 60 others that so far all worked fine. Just wondering. THANKS! Hey how do i donate?

Simple as that: Bioshock won´t install correct from an .iso. Period. If it does, it is a patched image and seems to be warez because it is obvious that you did not patch anything in this case. Got it?
