Axis & Allies / Pro Evolution Soccer 3
Can anyone help me out a little with this. All I would like to do is not have to put up with the noise of the cd for these games which are both DVD's. No problems making a cd game work, but these DVDs are proving a pain...
Ive tried using Alcohol 120%, Blind write and Disc Juggler to make the image btw Im getting errors on the last two tracks now (A&A) on an ASUS DVD and a Samsung DVD drive. I suspected my DVD rom drive was causing errors so swapped it out for another and still the same errors. Yestarday I managed to get A&A to work without cd on another machine with a single DVD/CDR combo drive (by uninstalling and reinstalling demon). I made a laserlock image and a ccd image (by mistake, no errors though on a different drive). I foolishy deleted the ccd image and files (as I thought it wasnt needed) the game stopped working with no cd from that point. Iv tried making both images (mds and ccd) with alcohol which I am sure isnt necessary; my reason is to replicate the setup when it worked? Iv looked at other posts relating to these games and am still no further forward. Id really like work this one out, because as soon as I get any other new games they are likely to be on dvd with PITA (pain in the ass) protection. The screem! that I receive when I insert the image and try and run the game is as follows:
"Please insert the original disc instead of a backup. see securom.com/copy for more information"

Iv submitted a file to them at securom, but Axis & Allies is a laserlock game?

Using alcohol (lol) I managed to eliminate the need for the cd and the noise! 
It took a whole day to work it all out and probably only 30 mins to complete..
