I have no idea what my cd-r drive is. It came with my computer. Something generic I imagine. "HL-DT-ST CD-RW GCE-8481b 1.10" That is the only information I can gather on my burner. I burned it with BlindWrite 4.5.7.92 with autoplay off, and in DAO PW mode. Just to make sure it would burn, I told it to write at 30x. On my other computer The cd works awesome, I load the game every time. But on this one.. It won't even let me install the game.

Ok your drive is an LG 8481B and isn't on any of the EFM capable lists I've looked at which could be a problem.

My suggestion would be to use the trial version of BlindWrite5 and set the read and burn speeds to 4X. The protection needs to be read and written back to the disc as accurately as possible so the slow speeds are a must.

ArcaneX,


You're a hero, at least in the world of my computer and its burning capacities. Yours is the only method that worked for me. For those who are interested, follow Arcane's instructions on page 2 of this thread, installing from a mounted image.

Cheers
