This is the fake CD utility that will allow you to simulate a hard
drive as a CD-ROM drive.  I bought the Warcraft II cd-rom and
love it but wished it to run faster on my hard drive so I use this
utility to fix the problem.

DON'T CALL ME ASKING FOR HELP SETTING IT UP......

IF YOU CAN'T DO IT YOURSELFT WITH THE HELP
DOCUMENTATION YOU DON'T DESERVE TO HAVE
THE UTILITY!

I really don't think this dude was able to do it. Me and several others
tried setting this all with experience from novice to advanced and we
never did get it to work.

  It has been done and it does work although it may be a different program.
The file called wc2spcrk.zip works fine with my legal copy. All you have to do
is add one file to your war2 directory and run it.

Just to mention it...

I got FAKECD to work with my copy of Warcraft II, but it only works
SOMETIMES...I can't figure out what the secret is to getting it to
work every time.

Where can I get my hands on wc2spcrk.zip?

Thanks

Craig

I too have this crack but have not used it yet. I'm told it works on
the version that installed for multiplayer. This crack then lest the
game run in single player mode with no CD. The only problem is if you
try to run a multiplayer game it still looks for one file that is
still on the CD. Besides that LITTLE problem i'm told it works good.

You can find at FTP SEARCH V3.0. Just type in a file name and you can 
then download. I'm happy to tell anyone where it is. Go to my page and 
then the WAREZ page to find the FTP SEARCH v3.0 site. Next time, dont be 
such a dick about it.
