I read in the End License Agreement that i can make a backup copy of the four
CD's. I copied the first three just fine but the 4th will not copy, I tried
differant copying and burning application with no luck. I called Microsoft
and they told me they do not write protect them or anything, but I have heard
otherwise as well. What's up?? Anyone know how i can copy these CD's for
backup's??

thanks.

thank you for the info but i just tried it and it "appears" to copy the CD's,
but if you try and use them, specifically the 4th CD which you need to have
in your machine to play the game, it will not run with the "copied" CD. Can
you install and play w/o that 4th CD ?

In my opinion, you can's play the game without this CD.
In Alcohol 120% (Yes ! this a a program that you can DL for free for 30 days
trial, full working)

Try this settings :

Insert your original CD or ISO file. (or whatever)
Go to "File " --> "Options"
Then, go to "Emulation" Under "Virtual drives"
Check all
Then under "Emulation"...you've got "More emulation" or something like this
(sorry, i am translationg from French to English)
Check all as well

Before burning, choose the slowest speed available (4X) ?
Then in the last line "Data Type" , choose "SafeDisc 2" or "SafeDisc 2/3"

it should be OK

Let us know.

Nico, tried it every way i think posiable and it did not work. I will copy
the CD's but you cannot use them. Can I install the game so I dont need the
4th CD to play?
