    i'm trying to play a copy of age of mythology. it installed fine,but whenever i try to launch the program it asks me to insert the first disc even though it's already in there. what's wrong? will the "no cd" crack fix this? if so, where can i get that? thanks.

    No discussing cracks, passwords or links to cracks and other pirated material.

    what programs were you using to make this backup?

    Lets see if we can get you on the right path.

    clonecd was used. the thing is that the actual disc works, but the copied disc does not. it installs fine, but it doesn't seem to recognize it as the 1st disc when i launch the program.

    i have read somewhere that clone cd might make this "virtual drive" or something so i uninstalled it and yet the program still fails to work.

    Clonecd might have blacklisted your game which clonecd tends to do, try uninstalling clonecd the reinstall youe game and see what happens, if that doesnt work we will try using Alcohol 120% to get you going.

    Try it.

    Also what make and model is your burner.
    Your burner might not be able to copy the bit patterns correctly so you might need emulation from Alcohol 120%

    the thing is that the same copy was used by a friend of mine and it worked for him, so it can't be my burner. i'll try to reinstall the game though.

    you made a comment that my burner might not be able to copy bit patterns correctly, but since my friend was able to use the same copy, it couldn't be that. i still have to try the game reinstall when i get home.

    simply using the uninstall doesn't completely take it out? :( i don't know much about pcs so i really don't know where to hunt for them. i have clone dvd on this too. will that matter?

    Unfortunately, software companies have forgotten what Uninstall means. They use it more like a "Hide" feature.

    The uninstall window should state...."are you sure you want to partially uninstall this program and leave it scattered around in numerous hard to find places throughout your pc"?

    click on my computer then click on search at the top, then off to the left hand side select All files and folders, type in clonecd and hit search, it will search your who;e computer for clonecd, whenn its done searching delete every entry that it finds and restart you computer.

    Your best bet would be Alcohol 120% with emulation

    is there anyway to find out if other programs i have on my computer have some sort of virtual drive? maybe it's more than just clonecd that has it?

    by the way, what does alcohol do? i have it, but haven't installed it.
