That's weird.  I've never had this issue.  It always works for me.  Just pop in the CD, double click the shortcut, and bam it's working. 

But I'm glad you got it working.

What operating system are you using, and what program did you use to burn the disc?

Oh, I read the ReadMe, and it says:

IF YOU ARE RUNNING VISTA, YOU CANNOT USE THE NO CD PATCH.  IT WILL CRASH THE GAME AS SOON AS IT STARTS!


The same applies to Windows 7, as it uses the Vista core. 

That's probably what your issues were.   Tongue
