Hello all,

First off, it was for me a tricky install - 2 CDs and after the first CD installed I couldn't eject that CD and insert Disk2. Solved that by copying disk contents to Desktop and installing from there. After the game installed, I tried to run it but kept getting the error message "No disc inserted." so I don't know if it'll run or not.

Here's all the requested info.

General config:

I couldn't help but notice that it's looking for a scsi drive in devicemap. I don't use scsi drives and I wanted to wait for feedback before I did a regedit to fake one.

also, fixme:ole:RemUnknown_QueryInterface No interface for iid {00000019-0000-0000-c000-000000000046} might have to do with my failure to install dotnet. Any opinions?

 

 

Yes, the title is available from GOG, but I really can't see paying another $10 (or euros) for a game I already paid for , plus the expansion pack.

 

 

At this point I am only interested in fixing the Disc not inserted problem.

 

Any assistance or suggestions would be highly appreciated.

 

Best regards,

Paul

Don't worry about "fixme" errors. Those don't usually cause any problems. Unfotuntely, this happens with Wine on certain games. It is usually because of the game's DRM. You can adjust where it looks for "drives" in Configure -> select virtual drive -> Wine tab -> Wine configuration. From there, there is a tab where it lists all of the "drives", so you can probably take your first CD (the one it is likely checking for), copy to a folder, and make a "D:" drive, point it to that folder where you copied the disc, and tell it that the "D:" drive is a CD-ROM drive. That might help. Other than that, unfortunately, it might be on of those situatations that involves a no-cd crack, which we cannot support.
