I've reformatted and am in process of putting everything back on my rig. I decided to give Windows a 20gig partition, and am putting everything else on the other 50-something.

I was thinking of ripping one of my disks for BF2 and mounting it as an image so I wouldn't have it in my drive (keeping the drive spinning).

Has anyone else done this? How well did it work?

I was thinking of doing the same thing. The disk becomes anoying I think. If this works plz let me know

I know it doesn't work with GTR, not sure about other games. Does it use Starforce?

i've used Daemon Tools with my copy of BF2. i think i heard a friend mention in passing that they'd put some emulation protection on the later versions though.

It doesn't use starforce, Its worth a try Iv done it for a few games to save me having to keep a cd in, especially when i use my dvd drives to play music cds.

I think it worked for me before I screwed up Daemon tools. It was a while ago, so I don't quite remember. It doesn't work on Alcohol's virtual drive.

Well, if I could figure out how to make the proper image I could give it a try.

I used ALcohol120% to make an image, but it was the wrong format.

Since I really don't know a whole lot about it, I guess I'm going to have to rely on Google. But, right now, I gotta go to work.

thats what im doing right now. i used alcohol 120 to copy the image to my desktop, then moved the image to my documents so i dont have t,o look at it, right click on it, and click mount image. pretty sure thats what i did. hope it helps

[Trotter]

I'll try that.

i know that my image was in Media Descriptor format (*.mdf and *.mds files) but usually i prefer ISO images
