Im reinstalling everything in my PC to clean it up.
and have created a partition called "Games" G: for misc. games and then "Unreal" U: for Unreal tournament.
but i would like to use alcohol 120 to make it so that i dont have to use the UT disk 1 each time i wanna play.

I want to be able to install Unreal Tournament, UT2003 and UT2004 onto U:

will it be possible to keep them all on a U: but all being able to run without the 1st disk?
or will i have to forget about Partition U: and just do the virtual drive thing. (havent used it yet, not quite sure how it works) so that UT could use U: and 2003 would use maybe V: and 2004 X:


so i guess in other words, can more then 1 virtual drive share 1 partition that has 1 drive letter.
or should i make smaller partitions for each indiviual game?


thanks
 
Patch and see magic without the need of A120%.

I think he means that one of the patches for the game makes it not require a cd to play. My legidimate copy of UT never needed a disc after the first update, maybe the others are the same way.

my legit copy of UT2003 always requires the disk 1 to be in the drive.
as does the Sims

i heard something before about this, and there was a mention of mounting the drive or something. or might of just been to use a virtual drive from A120%

it is said to make large games like UT etc. load much faster.
 
With the exception of battlefield 1942 no game I tried running directly off an iso works, it will install fine but will ask u to insert cd when u try to run it. You will need to crack yur games but hey... then u don't even need to worry about virtual drives. www.megagames.com is the best place for cracks (fixes).

thanks wolfy

at megagames, do you have to worry about virus and whatnot like you do at other crack sites?

thanks
