    hmmm did same with nfs carbon last night, but my guess it is more to do with the fact that some protection schemes don't like SATA drives to much. had this issue a few times now on both xp and vista 64.

    have you tried running Yasu???? and then running ur games it could be that ur PC is picking up some form of hacked software etc... and wont pick up ur CDs now.... download Yasu and give it a try it hides all ur drives from securerom and all that...

    Have you got it to work phoenix?

    It sucks when that happens. It's the absolute worst when you go out to buy a game and you look forward to it and then it's just impossible to play.

    I reluctantly downloaded the no-CD patch for Bioshock v1.1 from gamecopyworld while shaking a metaphorical fist at the DRM measures which made this necessary.

    Well as long as it works then it's alright. It sucks that one has to go to such measures though.

    Something consoles still have going for them. Insert Disc. Press Play.
    None of this messing about with intrusive DRM.
