1) Copy all the contents of CD1 to a directory, say: "DoW_DVD". Anything goes, pick what ever name you want. Copy Data2.cab from CD2 into the same directory, and Data3.cab from CD3.

If you're going to use the crack, do the following if not, skip this step, and go to 3a:

2) Open DawnOfWar.msi with ORCA, or any other msi editing program. Go to the Media table, and change the VolumeLabels to "DoW_DVD".
Switch the w40k.exe in Data1.cab with the cracked exe (if you can find a decent cab editor, pretty damn hard it seems!) If you aren't able to do this, don't worry, just make a folder on the DVD contaning the cracked exe. And switch it manually after the install. Go to 3b

3a) Burn them on a DVD-R, or create an image, name it "DoW_1" After the first CD.

3b) Burn the files onto a DVD-R, or create an image, name it "DoW_DVD" As what you changed the VolumeLabels in the Media table to.
