Unhappy I REALLY need HELP !!!

When using the cracked executables the game starts just fine but while playing i experience the known control issues. So i replaced the cracked exe with the original one and mounted the mini image to dt 4.03. The game exits to the desktop when entering the main menu!Any idea how to solve this?i have the latest catalyst driver and rolling back the driver did not work for me. I would appreciate any help!!!!!

after you have done that the game should run

This dont work. I still using the original exe, i mounted this image in DT4 , ran sr7, didnt work. Tried with sd4, didnt work. Tried cureRom didnt work.

When i start game, it loads EA screen and goes right back to desktop. Sinces it pointless you use the cracked exes that are out, might as well use original dvd disc until a working (bug free) crack is released. The game is only a day old, ill keep an eye out for a deviance crack, never had any issues with them.

i have used the crack and so my original exe is dead
Lesson 1:
Always create a backup of any original files before applying/using cracks!

Quote:
i can't reinstall the game
Lesson 2:
Reinstall from your original discs!!

Quote:
it will be very cool if on of you could send the original .exe
Lesson 3:
It is against forum rules to ask for original files!!! Read the forum rules please!

That's because the size that image after extraction from the rar is about 2.8 GB. Maybe you're just a bit short of that?

@roym76: Don't try to use files off a mini image, it won't work. (Had you had read the FAQ, you'd already know that by now!)

Please insert the correct DVD-ROM

I have the game and installed it etc; "Please insert the correct DVD-ROM"

Do you guys know what hte problem is?

Heres what i did.

Installed game.

After install, i mounted the The Godfather [ENGLISH] No-DVD/Fixed Image #1 in DT4.

Then i used a hiding tool like sr7 and sd4hide ( tried both ).

Ran the game, but it immediatly kicks me to desktop.

Am i missing something?

@tsi_: If your original game doesn't work, contact the publisher.

@IwubCookies: Read the FAQ on how to use mini images. Also, try with the original; if it doesn't work, contact the publisher.

No try it with your original disc!! Does the game work from the original disc? Without using an image or cracks etc.

yes it works perfectly fine with original disc. Me and my dad like to play the same games. We generally always play games at the same time, so we always use clones or images instead of buying the same game twice. Its annoying to constantly switch cds btween pcs.

As much as I dont agree with this particular part of the law but in most cases the EULA does state that the game must only be installed onto one PC at a time. I know this sucks but thats just how it is.
I believe we should have the right to install our game onto any PC we have at our own house.
For example, when you buy a Monopoly Board Game, you dont buy a copy for every member in the house who wants to play! So why should we be expected to buy a CD Game for every member of the house!
When we buy a music CD we dont buy one for every member, in the house, who is listening to it!
I have 2 kids, and 3 PC's, I dont buy a game each for them! (even tho 99% of the time they are not playing the same game at the same time.)
Keep in mind, not all EULA's are the same and the law is not the same in each country, so it does depend on where and what the law states.
