Bought the game on Saturday; trying to get it to accept a copy so I don't have to keep swapping discs whenever I use play games. Anyone managed to run it from a disc image?

Grey area here, don't think we would be allowed to give you advice on that.

Tell me if i'm wrong and I'll be happy to help though.

Well, given that I bought the game (am happy to bring it to the Teddington meet if Garlick doesn't believe me!)... can you email me?

I've googled to no avail - the only methods talk about replacing the file with a crack and using keygens which I shouldn't need to do and nor do I want to do as Punkbuster will register my legit code as a hack!

Oh, I've tried it on two different PCs.

Oh. Will try Alcohol 52%.

Actually, before I do, why doesn't PowerISO work?

Looks like Alcohol 52% has done the trick. Thanks. Means I can also install the other 3 games I bought. </geek>

cheers for the comments, downloading the free version atm, play games like halo, assassins creed etc and 6 games on image are fine for me

I never thought of that. I was going to make one image per game and just keep swapping between them. silly

Bought BF2, Darkstar One, Sacred and Port Royale. Bye bye, life.

crashed out 99% of the way, suspect it needs to be run in admin mode on vista...

Sorry, but you never know with some people!

Glad you got it sorted.
