I've been searching and either the answer is too obvious or there is something wrong

"Cannot locate the DVD-ROM
Please insert the correct DVD-ROM, select OK and restart the application"

Is it the original version of the game? Or is it a backup?

Are you running any virtual drives? e.g. Daemon Tools.

ya its a copy of the "original" i have

it's 3.18gigs
and no i dont have any virtual drives
this is really frustrating

[Joe Forster/STA]

Now is it really original or is it not? You see, you cannot make a working backup of a non-original CD/DVD...!

[robo989]

Do you own the original?

[Sam Leach]

Hello, I have the original game but I cant find a crack/image anywere. How can I get it to play with no DVD?

Thanks

[Joe Forster/STA]

Well, be patient until a crack/image becomes available, or create one yourself (for images, see the FAQ; for cracks, well, good luck! ).

i backup the game with alcohol 1.9.5, install it and i read that someone install anti-blaxx to play the game, so i did that too. after installation i mouth the image to the virtual drive and open anti-blaxx and TATA the game plays perfectly without any problems like "cant get out of cars" or "invert mouse"

mount your image with daemon tools.you should be ok.tried tested true.

[scorpio_54650]

you tride the no dvd patch from gcw write replace exe and play

[ajay_wilson1]

correct me if im wrong but i thought the crack for the godfather doesnt work. Try mounting a image you made in alcohol or download the maxi image from GCW and mount in the lastest version of deamon tools. That should work. and isnt there a whole thread on the godfather. Try using the forum search next time, you might find all the info you need already on the site

i made the image, mounted in both alcohol virtual drive and daemon tools... nothing different happens... still the "unexpected error, you have to close" window... (maybe don´t say that, but my windows is in spanish)

i´m desperate... do you think that a working .exe is coming soon??

[RincewindTheWiz]

Gurdok, does the original dvd exit with the same error ? If so, you have a problem with the game itself and should contact the publisher or try the developers' forum.
