I know, they just want to protect their investment, but I'm sick of carrying around all of these CD's. I bought the game, put it on my laptop (along with 16 other games), and just want to carry the laptop around - NOT a case of CD's as well. All of the NO CD fixes I've downloaded fail. Any chance some one out there knows of a real (easy hopefully) way to avoid carrying the CD around? Thanks.

Look for those which replace both the generals.exe and the game.dat file as those which only replace the generals.exe file will cause your buildings to explode about a minute into the game.

Get a disc ripping program (CloneCD, Blindwrite, Alcohol 120%) and rip images of the C&C discs (using the appropriate settings). Copy said images on to laptop hard drive and mount with Daemon Tools. This has the benefit of copying the copy protection so that you don't need any cracks and don't have to worry about patches undoing them.

Honestly dude, its really not that hard to carry CD's around compared to the amount of time it will take you to get a CD ripping program, and not to mention not using the CD's takes up a whole lot more space on your hard drive. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Great free multiplayer games here: a href=http://www.gamestotal.com/>Multiplayer Online Games</a> <a href=http://www.gamestotal.com/>Strategy Games</a><br><a href=http://uc.gamestotal.com/>Unification Wars</a> - <a href=http://uc.gamestotal.com/>Massive Multiplayer Online Games</a><br><a href=http://gc.gamestotal.com/>Galactic Conquest</a> - <a href=http://gc.gamestotal.com/>Strategy Games</a><br><a href=http://www.stephenyong.com/runescape.htm>Runescape</a><br><a href=http://www.stephenyong.com/kingsofchaos.htm>Kings of chaos</a><br> Cossack92u515710 error wrote: > jmev7 wrote: > > I know, they just want to protect their investment, but I'm sick of carrying > > around all of these CD's.
