Hi,

What make/model burner are you using to back up your games? Firmware version?

What settings and profile did you use for A120?

I use a Lite-On It (LTR-16102B) CD Burner......

When using A120% i followed these simple intructions :
Open Alcohol 120%

Under "Options" select "Virtual Drive"

At the top right change "Number Of Virtual Drives" to 1

Hit "OK" and exit Alcohol 120%

Go to "My Computer"

Under "Devices With Removable Storage" select the newest drive, it will show up as a DVD-ROM drive but it is your virtual drive.

Right click on your virtual drive and select "Mount Image"

Locate your BIN and select it.......... so as of right now im starting all over

Hi,

Daemon Tools might be worth a shot :)

Hmmmmm.........

It looks like it might be best to just start from the beginning. I's suggest using the Alcohol Image Making Wizard, the SafeDisc 2/3 profile and kicking the read speed down to 12X or so just to make sure and then go from there :)

Also delete the image you've been working with before doing the above.

I don't know if I should start a new thread. My problem is exactly the same, but I think that the cause is different.

The title bar says:
Quote:
Cannot locate the CD-ROM
, and the actual message is:
Quote:
Please insert the correct CD-ROM, select OK and restart the application
The game ran fine from the original disks when I installed it, but after I made a couple of back-up copies using Alcohol 120%, the game refused to run; first on the back-ups, and then it refused to run on the originals either.

I've uninstalled and reinstalled several times, even to include deleting any mention of "EA Games" from the registry, on the chance that the game left behind some data from the previous installation(s).

I have never had a "virtual disk" set up on the machine, so that can't be the problem.

Is there something else I could try ?

Thanks in advance.
