I recently downloaded a game and burnt the files to cd and succesfully installed it. But when I try to play, I keep getting the message to enter the cd even though its already there. I dont understand why I could install it from the burnt cd but it doesnt recognize it when I go to play. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

LOL! Yeah, what ratbag said. Basically, it is a copy-protection scheme you are running into.

Sounds like a Sim-ulation game I have. Kinda ran into the same problem.

Almost certainly you need a crack file, which almost certainly came on the disk your computer keeps telling you to insert. Almost certainly you need to drag this file from your burnt CD to the install directly. Which is almost certainly has the same name as the .exe file you are trying to run.

It is also an almost certainty the disk came with or contains a .nfo file which contains the information similar to what I just said but without the sarcasm. Open this file in notepad and read it.

If you have a 1:1 copy and alcohol installed, try hiding the ATIP information.
