Dear Gee Gee,
you have closed my problem rash, I own the original program disk, but I kept it on my desk and my cats played with it. So now it is unreadable because of scratches made by my cats.
After purchasing the game I had the great idea to backup the cd into a folder on the HDD, but usefully I didn�t backup the name of the cd. So now after reinstalling the game, it asks for the correct cd.
That�s the situation.

Nice story, I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and leave this thread open.

Thank you.
But consider, if I would have downloaded the game as warez - as you imply - then these files should work without this information I hope to retrieve in this forum.
The second way would be a copy from a friend. If you burn a copy from a cd, normally you make a 1:1 copy which includes the name.
So, my story seems to be a fairy tale, but is no one.

Points taken.
HPCOS name your CD.
Hopefully you've learnt that cats and discs do not mix.

My cats and I send you our best wishes and thank you for your help!

Hmm, all could have been better if you had written "My preciousss Queen" instead of "Dear Gee Gee" - she would have given the info pronto

Cheers!
