World Snooker Championship

Hey, dunno if anyone can help me - basically i made a backup copy of my game (wsc) which I then ran setup from to make sure it works, when I use my backup copy I can't start the game but when I use my original, I can.

I have downloaded and replaced the wsc.exe with the cracked version but to no avail - I wander if its because I'm using Win XP cos I notice that some other cracks specify that they work with XP.

Any ideas how to sole this prob?

Would apreciate any help - cheers

umm i had the same problem, unfornuately the cracks will not work on XP brings up some error about win32 is invalid, the only way round is to download daemon tools and emulate the protection using the securom setting then the backup will run

Hi, thanks for the replies. Noonie, you are right about the problem but I don't really understand your solution, is there any chance you could explain it in a bit more detail please?

PUBBLOKE, don't really understand what you said either, is there any help there or are you just making a few comments?

Cheers for the help anyway guys, I apreciate it.

go to www.daemon-tools.com and download 3.29 install and tick securom on the task bar icon, insert backup which will work as daemon tools kicks.

Hi guys,

I have had the same problem in XP, so I downloaded daemon tools (v3.33) and selected securom as noonie449 suggested, but it doesnt work. It says "wrong cd inserted" when I try and play it. If I use the no-cd crack, it says "not a valid win32 application". Any suggestions noonie?

Thanks,

DG
