Wrong disk inserted Error, with the right disk WTF?

Nick89 · Apr 13, 2008

OK, I bought Supreme Commander and Supreme Commander Forged Alliance, Well I installed Supreme commander and everything went ok but when I double clicked the desktop Icon I get Wrong disk inserted EVERY TIME. Even though I'm using the disk that came in the box.

I already reinstalled it, and it didn't do anything.

I tried taking the disk out and re-inserting it but I still get the error when I try to use the desktop Icon. Also The auto play feature works and brings up the game menu from the DVD itself and I can start and play the game from there.

The same thing is happening with Supreme Commander Forged Alliance also, and I bought both games from different stores SO I know its not the DVDs themselves.

Also somtimes it makes my CD/DVD drive COMPLETLEY disapear from "My Computer" and I have to restart my F'*king computer.

I think the sh*tty anti piracy sh*t doesnt like my CD/DVD drive. :banghead:

The name of my CD/DVD drive is an Emprex, I'll see if I can find the box...

so get a "fixed" .exe file for it!

Not too sure I should have said that, so if you are not familiar with how that works, we could move that to PM's!

i had the same problem with a few other games, i brought them back to the store, the new copies did the same thing, best think i can suggest is a no cd crack

Nick89 · Apr 13, 2008

thanks guys, also if you want I have a scanner and can scan both the CDs with a piece of paper with writing on it next to them TO SHOW I actually have bought the games.

sneekypeet · Apr 13, 2008

its cool ,I just wasnt too sure on TPU's view on telling ppl to use a no CD/DVD crack.

Snake05 · Apr 13, 2008

Fixed .exe's certainly sound better, but it is still somewhat frowned upon from what I understand. I don't really consider them a crack, more of a conveniences (rather than constantly thumbing around my dvd folder).

Thanks Sneekypeet, You helped me out alot. :toast:

Just a quick question, do you use virtual drives at all? I know that conflicts with a lot of games now a days.

Umm. Last time i played SC was about 5 month ago and it DID NOT need the DVD after patching was done. Think it was v 1.52 and the DVD check was removed. Did they re add the DVD check with the addon

I have no idea.. I cant get mine to patch unfortunatly, I'll have to manually find the patchs and do it from there..

@Darknova, Yes I do use virtual drives for some games I have, could it be a problem?

das müffin mann · Apr 14, 2008

ya i would exit out of them and see if it works

TechnicalFreak · Apr 15, 2008

If I remember right, I have the 1.5.3599 patch for Forged Alliance and 1.1.3280 patch for Supreme Commander. Also, I tried the game with Game Jackal, but then I couldn't use the mods (don't ask why) same goes if you try a "modified .exe" so stay away from them.

Yes, the later patches makes the game run without DVD. The problem I had was that the damn game didn't start at all.. giving me an error (prolly because of AMD?).

Anyway, need patches? Visit www.patches-scrolls.de (Note to admin/webmasters - this page is TOTALLY legal and has only patches and does not have "nocd" or "cracks" or anything similar to that!)

COD4 gives me similar errors. I have to completely disable my virtual drives to run it.
