    ISO's are supposed to be burned to cds. They're image files. Extract the second iso to a new folder. When they ask for the second cd, browse to the folder that you extraced the iso to and it should read it as a cd.

    No, I didnt. I bought the game. You should use Nero Burning Rom to burn both cds, that way it will read the second cd. Usually that folder trick will work for a lot of stuff. Probably just a game protection issue or something.

    When you download games, they are just iso's (images of cds). It depends on how good your burner can handle an iso. If its not a great burn, the game can recognise its dublicated.

    There is a way around this, AN ILLEGAL WAY. Crackers often make crack files that remove cd checks. They share these in p2p file sharing apps. Note however, if you get caught with cracked software, your well you get the idea.

    instead of burning the cd just go a and download DAEMON Tools V3.02, an emulation software so that you can mount ISO image file as vitual DVDrom or Cdrom drives. but before you use it make sure to read the readme file to make sure that it's compatible with your system and software

    Too Big????

    If its Medal of honour it shouldn't be and yes, there is a way around this if its only one cd required.

    Yu can download cdrwin5.0 and click test image. Find your iso and you'll see a place to drag it to!

    This will create a simulation cd drive in your "My Computer" folder and will probably autorun anyway.


    However, I have a particaluar interest in your iso being too big. Could you tell me what size the iso itself is & what way you tried to burn it with nero???

    God dont do that!!!!. Instead of extracting those files and then burning, download nero and click file - burn image. You'll be able to understand the rest!

    Sometimes, iso's hold data that only burning software can read. This could be a hidin bit of data that setup searches for to check for piracy!

    After much mukkin' round I was able to extract the iso.exe files using IsoBuster, then burned each CD file onto CDs. Also downloaded noCD from P2P which works well. I was stopped after "Training" but soon learned to get to the first mission in the briefing room. Hit "Ent" key when the mission box is open, then select difficulty. Enjoy

    I too downloaded the MOHAA ISO files from Kazaa, and originally extracted them using an ISO program, which seemed to work, until about 1/3 of the way through the install, it would say "please insert other disk." I would point it to the other ISO file and it wouldn't work. Then I saw this thread and tried buring the ISO files directly onto CDs w/ Nero, but there would always be errors while burning. Finally, I downloaded Daemon Tools and mounted the ISO files in virtual CD drives, which seemed to work fine, until once again 1/3 of the way through the install it says "cannot find file, please insert other disk" and again I'd point it to the 2nd ISO file and it wouldn't work. Could anyone help me out? Thanks!

    Forget kazaa!!! When it comes to cd images, kazaa sucks most of the time. Instead learn how to use edonkey2000 http://www.edonkey2000.org

    Then visit http://www.sharereactor.com

    ShareReactor indexs files from edonkey that have been checked and are legit. Edonkey does take longer to download but thats something we all have to get used to!

    OK, I finally got the game installed using WinISO, and I did the basic training mission, and when I select the first mission which was "Azrew" and click on the Difficulty level, the game quits and the console says: "Tried to read from a zip file maps/briefing/briefing1.min that was not open." I tried manually unzipping all those "pk1/pk2" etc files, but that didn't work either. How can I get the missions to work? Can anyone help me get started actually playing the game? Thanks!
