if someone could make an mini image of the game cd. Like in RomeTotalWar we shouldn't have the problem. Becuase one image for US and one for Europe. And you get a stright please insert disc error if you got the wrong mini-image file.
However to your case.

The no-cd can be a fixed .exe file! Means that CD-Checks are still avible. That's mean if you done a losly copy of the Disc 2, so the protection isn't copied you can run it fine with a fixed .exe. It will ask for disc and just check the label for it/maybe one or two file and not the protection! If you got the original and bad copy it will ask for the original CD!
