Sauron, you need to have one of the CDs that comes with the game, 3 I think, in the CDROM drive as you play.

YeaH, security can be annoying sometimes, but it's to prevent anyone who didn't actually purchase the game from installing and playing it. Please be patient with this. I wish we were in a world were everyone was automatically honest, but that is not, unfortunately, the case.

Hi
I was running XP and the game also didn't want to find the CD. Any of them. I did a windows update and well now it works. On the support pages sir-tech says in most cases you should get the most up to date drivers for your CDROM.
