I read this from an earlier post and it states to change the name of something in the registry to bypass a copy protection. I installed "Far Cry" from a friend's disc and then later made an iso image so I could play it without actually having to keep borowing my friend's game but when ever I mount the game it states that I need to insert the correct dvd, I have all the emulations on. Anyhow, here is the earlier post that I am hoping will fix this problem, if someone could just walk me through the procedure that would be great.

okay you can by pass this by removing the following from the registery... dont worry every time you reboot it gets rebuilt.
what I would do is rename it just incase
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\Scsi]
if you rename this then all D-Tools Scsi drives are no longer being flagged by the copy protection.
I have verified with some of the new games that have this protection.
just remeber that the
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\
gets rebuilt on a reboot so it will need to be renamed every time..
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\Scsi]
also you could do it on any of the d-tools SCSI ports
example
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\Scsi\Scsi Port 0\Scsi Bus 0]
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\Scsi\Scsi Port 1\Scsi Bus 0]
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\Scsi\Scsi Port 2\Scsi Bus 0]
just remove the one that corresonds to the device that you mounted.
