Does it use SecuROM version 4.x or above? That things a bitch, you
pretty much have to keep trying over and over again until it works. Try
just making images of it and mounting it onto a virtual drive until it
works. That way you don't waste a bunch of Cd's. Okay I just checked it
does use SecuROM. Get the BWA file from here:
http://www.makeabackup.com/modules.php?name=Downloads&d_op=viewdownload&cid=1&min=30&orderby=titleA&show=10

then get the twinpeak program to patch a CloneCD image. Even then it's
gonna take a few tries to do. If it ever does :)
